Some bloke on RetroRides was telling me me had the Quaife ATB in his mk2 Cav and said it turns down the scare factor? Did you drive yours before and after the Diff?

Yes. No less scary really but pulls you through the corners like nothing else

I was thinking on investing in one but I'm going to wait until I've drove it for a season so I can appreciate what it is doing. Is it just an "off the shelf" Diff or are they special made? Do you remember what kind of price they are?
