I believe that these come with a lifetime warranty as well. Correct me if I am wrong...

no measurable performance difference over a regular helical diff according to the data I have.

I wouldn't buy this as an upgrade for a normal helical diff, but if you're replacing your front diff anyway I don't see any reason to not get this.

I've spoken to Road Race and Wavetrac directly about this unit.
They claim the differential will last the life of the car with no maintenance required. Also the differential has a transferable lifetime warranty (even in racing applications). Once save up a couple more bucks I hope to try one of these out at Buttonwillow Raceway.

I have had it now for a while and it is still working as previously posted. I am extremely happy with it.

Yes, I have been using one in my hillclimb IX for gravel and tarmac racing since 2009.
