hey guys..i got a boosted ls vtec making a lil over 400 whp, and im needing sumthing to get me off the line better to improve my 60 ft...i currently have an open diff...i was leaning toward a richmond spool because of my budget instead of a quaife...i dont daily drive my car..i drive it like 3 times a month to the drag strip and thats about it, so im not worried about drivability and steering...im just mainly worried about how well they hold up or if there is any problems encountered with the richmond...thanks guys!!

get and MFactory LSD and be done.

Richmond/TCI spools like to twist.

how much power does it take to twist them? its hard to see the twist in the pic

I would go with an M-Factory LSD. Most affordable at the moment and is a quality made product. I would not drive on the street with a spool. Speaking from experience..I only had to drive a few miles to get to the track and almost got into an accident not being able to steer very well to avoid another car. Was a close call. Not worth it in my opinion. Would just wait a bit longer and save up some more $ Will be worth the wait!

depends on traction at the hit.

600 hp and a tight track, you gonna twist it

900 hp and a loose track, you gonna spin the slicks over

so its rele that aweful to drive it on the street even thos its not a dd huh

MR.johnson

xjdmjunkiex

wut about obx? i have sum guys at our local track running obx, and they are pleased with them so far and are currently running in the 7's at the 1/8 with it

MR.johnson

I have had both. Obx failed. I even did all the prep and upgrades. Buy an mfactory from syncrotech and never have to worry.
