You should think about a welded diff. It made my car a lot faster.

Subject: Re: [Fot] inside wheel lift
I have the swaybars and still get a lot of lift most notably at Sears Point (ok
Infinion). We lowered the car during the post season so I don't know yet if
that will help. I know that some guys have swithch to some type of locking
read end as a solution. Gary- are you following this thread?
