Is there a big difference in grip in the dry between a 225 box and an R26 lsd box on the road? Pulling away from lights, coming off a round about. Don't really go fast when its wet or track the car so dont care about this.
You'll open a huge can of worms on here asking that recently :eek: There a difference yes. Werther you'll notice this and how important it is very much depends on your driving style IMO. They (R26) need the traction control turned off to make best use of the LSD, also IMO.
I dont have a problem with traction at the minute, unless i want it to break traction, but next month I think I might. Been offered an R26 gearbox for a good price and unsure if I should get it or not.
If it's cheap then get it, you can have a go in my R next week if you want might help make your mind up, the diff works well in the wet , ask Andy bond
Im going to have similar power to Andys maybe a little bit more after its mapped next month. Its fun now so cant wait.
I'm looking at making a gadget to lower boost in gear when I need it. Done one years ago on a mk3 astra gsi with c20 let engine and it worked well.
Whats strange about it? While your there pissing about on and off the throttle trying to get traction I will be foot to the floor and gone.
never had an issue with traction and I was running 300/300 on semi slicks most the time even through winter.
well your a better driver than me cause ive got 280 hp and it spins all the time haha even with goodyears
I think what Dan was saying is that if you drive sensible and to the conditions then the wheels should have no reason to spin, I also use semi slicks all year round mine never spin either.
