Differentials,... anyone with experience?

I was wondering if anyone has experimented around with changing the rear diff to start off with working your way up.

I anticipate problems with traction and I;m wondering if anyone here has experience with a moded diff on an A4. Any information is greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

Stasis sells a LSD unit for the rear. I believe it's a Porsche part, but fits perfectly.

Paul seems to be the man with the plan when it comes to knowing about that stuff. I suggest giving him a call at Stasis.<ul><li><a href="http://www.stasisengineering.com">www.stasisengineering.c om</a></li></ul>

You can mod a the torsen diff....

I don't have experience doing it in the A4, but there a bunch of guys who have modded the Torsen for the FSAE program in their race cars. Just go to the Torsen website. You can tune it using different washeres and what not.

I think there's also a Porsche unit for the front, and a Quaife is also available for the rear.

here is a link to the AW article on the Stasis touring car...

... with some discussion on diffs.

Also, I think peloquin is also making a rear diff for the A4.
