need more power?
gotta work on clutch and shifting, timing

if your having trouble spinning tires in first, lsd will make it harder

an idea of setup will help

We have a CRX that went 9.62@153 @ 2300lbs with one, but I'm sure people with 100whp have broken them....

how you launch the car, has a lot to do with how long the parts last.

and its never, ever, EVER, good to launch on street tires.

itr lsd's in my experience break just as easy as stock diffs. i have switched to mfactory diffs because of there unbeatable price. no offense to quaife! i have 2 of your diffs and love them! but i have sold like 6 mfactorys in the last month and a half and everybody has had nothing but good things to say. i sat my quaife next to the m and they look identical. both have great machine work and and you can tell they are very high quality pieces.

Recommend both...have used both and have nothing but good things to say about them Prices on Quaife have come down while the prices are on the M-Factory have went up a tad. So they are getting close in price range.
