do the have more top speed ????
better acceleration ?????
thanks for ur advice
also do they go straight in ???
should go straight in mate, there isnt much difference in strength though i dont think, i would imagine the ratios are very similar in comparison so wouldnt expect much difference in terms of top end a acceleration.
Try LSD if you can get a second hand one, standard ones are stronger to an extent because they havent put up with the stress of high power and are likely to last longer, given you dont constantly blast in in 1st and 2nd all the time, more power more money mate sadly
