I think it might be because of the bald Kdw's. I would agree. My cars spins both tires until I let off the gas. No quaife needed as the very worn KDW's spin at will... I'll second (third?) that - I can easily get as much wheelhop as I want if I launch too high at the strip or hammer the gas on a wet road, even with a Quaife. Another big difference with the Quaife that I found on Sunday: I drove for about 1/8 mile at 45 MPH with the left wheels in a large pool of standing water on the Garden State Parkway during a downpour. Car stayed straight as an arrow with the right wheels out of the "mini-lake". Torque Biasing Differential might have saved my life - I had no idea the water was that deep or went on for that long until it was too late. I won't even start on the joy of driving in the snow with Quaife and Blizzaks.

Its no fun vibrating for 50 feet as the wheels hop down the drapstip. In his car its all rub and go! He has the DMD also. Quaife + DMD = SMOOTHE! The next thing you know, his name will be on the 1/4 mile database with mine Sold 1998 Contour LX 13.868 sec 1/4 mile time. Two years of rental cars, seriously. Holding out for 07 Cobra Mustang.

I assume from the other posts here it is some sort of differential or transaxle? 99 Contour SE Alpine 7894 Polk 6x8's (soon to be Diamond Audio 6.5 separates) Fosgate Amps Kicker 12's No Other Mods YET (I'm poor)
