diffs in the wet !

(1/4) > >>

gillm:
just had 1 fitted and im still getting alot of wheelspin in the wet , is this to be expected ? i have inly driven cars with diffs in on dry roads/track

tony_danza:
Yes, it'll lose traction just like it did before - but you'll feel it "searching" as it sends power to either side, kind of feel like it's pulling at the wheel a bit and trying to change direction?

jabbalad:
diffs wont stop wheelspin they will just help with traction in the sence that it cant just spin 1 wheel, it has to make the extra effort to spin both!

Hurdy:
Yes, you will still get wheelspin. It took me a while to get used to mine as the extra grip is there in the wet and I took to "keeping my foot in" at higher speeds when feeling wheelspin on the straights and it worked a treat on snow at 90mph :rolleye: :driver: (ask Topher on the golfgti.co.uk forum :grin:)

There is no doubt that a car is quicker with Quaife than without, it just need gauging as to how much extra grip it does give you and once you've dialled yourself into it, the results are truly awesome. :happy2:

4WD is better  :P  :grin:
