I think the wavetrac is around $900-1000, and quaife is around $1200..

They haven't set any pricing yet, it's just a prototype at this point. It still has to survive the abuse we're about to throw at it before they consider adding it to the product line up.

the one I have is a 1-way.

Not sure how the 9's are, but the X's don't have issues with the front diff till about 450 wheel on a roadcourse. Sure, an x can benefit from one before that power, but the stock front diffs faililngs won't be a hinderance untill that 450-500 mark. This is on slicks too btw.

Curious as to what you have as your rear diff & center diff right now? Seems to me that those would need upgrades before the front. I'm working on a center diff controller right now for my acd and a good clutch pack for the rear.

Valve stem seals? I do not currently have a catch can, could that be it.. Doesn't use any oil, plugs are always perfect. Need some input. Thanks

from what i've seen, it only does it on decel, when you let off the gas. has something changed, Kyle?

Yeah, they're always near the top in PAX though a 1-2 at the pro and what would have been 2nd for Grice at the Tour is mighty impressive. Wonder if they've made any changes since last year, or what changes they made since I'm sure that car is never static on its setup.

it's tough to claim victory at a pro when everyone is sand bagging, but thanks for noticing. The car is freaking amazing right now though.

...minus the hole in the trans.

One day you'll have to share some of your secret sauce and just give us specifics on what youve learned. Maybe the day you sell the car to move on to something different
