3.08 to 3.46 will only make you spin tires harder. Was there no 3.08 bolted diff made or are you bullshitting your way to an acceleration boost under the guise of safety?

no, i feel like the word 'project' necessitates some sort of rehabilitation or restoration.

hey now!! :)
there was, it was produced for the same 1 year time period - 2007. the manual got a 3.08 and the auto got a 3.46, but this diff is only for RWD cars - they got a 'large case' diff; the xDrive cars got a 'small case' diff. so considering most cars (at least up here) are xDrive, i had to to kinda take what i could get. to be honest, the car's torque curve is great and a 3.08 would've been fine... i just happened to find a 3.46 that was really low mileage and exactly the year i wanted (going with the bolted diff saves me about $1000). now... this is all supposing that the part # sleuthing i did was correct - when i open the case i'll find out.
nothing about a 306hp twin-turbo car is essential, LOL. i'm simply trying to get some more grip!
the e-diff isn't exactly super helpful or even smooth in operation, and really only 'works' (i use that term loosely) when DSC fully off.
a real LSD is certainly an asset in the winter. i mean - when DSC lights up in a flashing frenzy and cuts 99% of your power... whether you're trying to traverse an intersection or pull out of your driveway - nothing beats more traction. :) the LSD i had in the ZHP sedan and the Touring most definitely allowed me to actually get places safer in the winter.
that said... ;) launches and sideways driving would also be a lot SAFER with an LSD.... tell me i'm wrong!! :)
(you can't!)
hahahahahahaha. this is fun. :)
That's all we wanted, a confession! Carry on!
