Default Diffs from a 2.0 xr4x4

What ratio are they and are they worth more than normal diffs, I think my bro may be getting ripped off.

i used one for 3 years in a turbotechnics sapphy, that was running 210bhp, to be honest not a massive difference between the 3.62 to 3.92,

The box ratios are different to a cossie though
