Welded diff has to be hell in rain. My front end slides sideways with too much throttle in the rain as it is. It wants to change lanes in town driving around corners by itself... haha

the team green took away the torque steer for the most part on my stock 3400. drag it seemed alright, but so did open diff. for autocross it just sucked, it was worthless.
even with the EP i can still burn one tire in autocross if i tried, but its still a LOT better than TG and open diff
You guys also need to remember, these are LIMITED SLIPS, not LOCKERS, so yes if you get one tire to break free very easily over the other one then its GOING to slip... Its supposed to do that, and the whole benefit of the EP LSD is the fact that its 100% rebuildable with WEAR parts that you can replace... Where the TG insert turns your side carrier steel thrust washers into bushings... Steel on Steel never resulted in a good outcome.
I'm going to be rebuilding my EP this winter because I think 30k has finally gotten to it. I used to run it in my street car so It saw about 15k in that and then I put it in the pink car and thats seen about 12-13k or so... When I do the rebuild I may get new clutches if thats necessary, or I'll just rough them up, and I'm also going to shim the springs a little to get some more preload.
thats more then the car is woth that he's puttin it in
And you know this is not true... KBB yes its worth more, but the amout of money he already has into this 3500 turbo build... I think the 4k is very minimal.

I have three years and over 1000 runs on my EP with absolutely NO PROBLEMS at all.
In fact Rodney and I were looking at my drag radials last week and they are worn damn near identically, so the silly thing is working.
I know I can literally take my hands off the steering wheel when it leaves the line and it goes dead straight. And with 2.0 or better 60' times it certainly grabs your attention.
In normal driving, which admittedly I do little of, you would never know it's even in there.
