MMcGuirk Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Mr 350 modification here........ I have been jonesing for something to do, so I pulled the trigger on a Torsen. Got a good deal from American Muscle - $560.00 and I am installing it on Wednesday. Gives me enough break in time for the track at the Bash.

MMcGuirk Posted March 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Michael- That's a good price Far cheaper than SAI charged me! Let me know what you think after the goodie is installed Pat The torque multiplication ratio on the unit I bought is 2.0, versus the Boss ration of 2.9 or the FR500 unit of 4.0. Torsen explained that the 2.0 is a good choice for higher torque cars like GT350s and the GT500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJPat Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Interesting. what is the functional difference (aka, real world driving) in the torque multiplication from one type of Torsen to another? Now I have to ask Alex, as the car is already in PS, as to what SAI installed in my car. Alex - you reading this?!! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Boss Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Do I sense a little sour grapes here? Of course! But I don't know what the different values mean so I'd have to use my secret decoder ring. You're gonna love the Torsen BTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMcGuirk Posted March 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 Torsen installed at Rear End Specialties, Santa Clara today. I am really impressed. The car is much smoother. Can't wait to try it out at Spring Mountain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
