In the course of my travels I have come across a fresh 901 box with a locked diff in it. I had asked in a previous thread about the merits of an open vs 40% vs 80%. What the diff in a locked diff vs the 80%?
I could get this one for a pretty good price. Maybe it's worth it to have a spare transaxle laying around.... Help me understand. Thanks, Bill |

Brant,
thanks for the info. my car has about 250HP in it...so it's not too underpowered and it's a full time track car....I'm trying to improve my times in both auto-x and track. everyone's right that you can't ultimately tune your car for both, but I can tell you that the car is doing very well in both....so I am continually looking to provide the best compromise between the 2. I'm hoping that the 80% LSD will drop my times in both auto-x and track events... As it is...right now I'm spinning the wheels way too much....of course, it could be the driver...
