Diff is more aggressive lockup which can be adjusted with shims, other have said it gives awesome traction but I can't confirm that until I've used it! Hopefully be more reliable too. Downside is the grating \ chuntering noises like a GT3 Cup diff.
Final drive is for better acceleration at the expense of low geared crusing and a little bit of top end. Standard is 3.6 which gives a geared top speed of 206 in 6th which will never be reached anyway, with the 4.1 final drive 6th gear will hit 8200 rpm at 181 mph which might just be reachable. downside is 4.5k rpm at 100mph cruise. circa 10% more torque at the wheels so hopefully a similar improvement in acceleration... |
