Choosing a diff or choosing a company?

If you mean diff, you know you want a spool, and something like 3.73 or 3.9s.



Boss Racing Diffs should be your only choice Spool, LSD, Lokka, Graham will be able to sort you out

got my diff rebuilt thursday

still wearin it in be4 i can tell if the 3.9's make much difference
lokka is great, lil noisey but the idea is fantastic.

like a normal single when cruisin around.. hit of the pedal or when she changes locks right up and loves it kick out.
excited to see how everythin goes under full throttle

The diff gears wont do much except make your traction a little worse. But they will really shine if you ever get a cam in it and some more top end power

as if the diff gears are wickd of the line as you would hope. they do make drivin at 100 a bit annoying. the needle goes crazy when you plant it great mod.
as for the lokka. im enjoying it so far. the only down side is the noise but who cares it can drive normally, or i can make it lockup like a spool. helps with launch and goes sideways as i have found out.
very happy
