All mods should make the car overall a better product, I have no favourite mod they all make the car what it is.

The box bolts on where the servo would go and connects up to the transfer bar as usual. Lines can be bought from Merlin Motorsport and you make them up yourself. Really easy.

Think I paid Ł120 for the box and about Ł80 for the lines ready made second hand. Then I just shortened 2 of them to fit my car.
