    Every car I have owned has had a turbo in it, until I bought this latest festiva.. I plan to fix that though.

    phantom grip

    it is only a patch...add some $ to have a real posi trac diff. one of my friend use one and it is marginal....new it is ok but with some miles on it it lost effectivness.

    good luck

            phantom grip

            as it name : phantom ... the same result as open diff but add some traction with low torq output, it cant make your open diff a posi trac one.

              just weld the spider gears together


              of course, i hope you don't like turning....

              Phantom grips get mixed reviews, personally, for the effort it takes to install one, its probably not worth the results. Unfortunately, i think the only other option is a cusco or quaife LSD which both cost more than any of us probably bought our festy's for. For me, thats not a problem, but a lot of people it is.

                well when im doing autocross i could really use a lsd. a locked diff is just retarded and buying a real lsd isn't worth it... soooooo ..fack? :roll:
