Default diff problems

hey bought my first cosworth last october and as warned i'm now having the problems that follows that sort of purchase. Anyway cut to the chase.

Over christmas i set of a little to heavily and blew the front diff to pieces. I'm now thinking about uping the bhp and need the diff and box to handle this. Can any one give me an idea about what names i should be looking for, were i'd get it or if anyone has it for sale and what prices i should be looking for.

All replys appreciated.

Andy
