I'm in the process of moving and while cleaning up, I found an e-mail from 8-02 from Rennsport that I printed. As you can see, I also wanted the Quaife. Here it is quoted:

Hello again Steve. Yes I would want an LSD. I don't know if you use Quaife or ZF. I would prefer a Quaife. Do you suggest otherwise?

Uhhh, yessir by far. IMHO Quaife LSD's are fine for FWD and street cars, but for any track work and in any high-power situation, the clutch-pack type LSD's are far superior. They lock up better and under trailing throttle, they keep the rear wheels connected to stabilize braking and corner entry. The handling differences are quite dramatic. I only use Quaife-types in FWD cars that cannot tolerate ANY additional understeer and in cars that are autocrossed.
