In Lehman terms what is the difference between the hi torque version and you current diff?

I quite liked your cryptic reference to the German VAG engine builder.  :happy2:

No dramas about Crail mate, its pretty far to go too!:(
I only find that the diff is noticeable if I drive much too aggressively for the public roads! It's almost counterintuitive to actually get it working properly but when it does kick in it really rips you around the corners!;)

Thats some scary power right there.. I know lots of people love modding their cars but are there any downsides besides it making your insurance more expensive.. Im rather new to this scene and bought my gti mk5 already modded to 280-290bhp and was just curious as i was thinkong about taking it up above 300+bhp
