Peloquin vs Quaife?

[GOLFBALLS]

Just trying to decide on a suitable LSD for my 20vt conv.
I dont have much experience with this stuff so can anybody tell me anything about Quaife diffs compared with Peloquin? What's more expensive etc?
Cheers,

Quaife has a more reputable name.

The rest is very similar. I'm waiting on my pelequin to come off back order and then the rest of my stuff gets shipped

What's your application?

There's a good article here on the different types of diffs.

Have a look here for some LSD options (select from the list on the left for peloquin, quaife, wave trac, bildon etc)

They're as good as eachother, they're both ActiveTorque Biasing. You'll usually find that the peloquin is a bit cheaper and they supply the diff-bolts to replace the rivets and the shim kit which apparently creates enough preload so that the torque biasing will even work if you have one of the front wheels in the air (like I'm ever going to be able to test that!). Also, they offer a no questions asked warranty - at least they did with mine. Yeah Quaife is more famous but I really don't think it would be any better, and it would be more expensive especially after you hunt down all the extra bits.

You'll love these diffs, I couldn't believe how much more grip they give.

Great, thanx guys. If the peloquin is cheaper and just as good, peloquin it shall be.
Peter, its goin on an 02A from a 16v corrado, which is going on a 20vt with 260ish bhp for a mk2
Cheers guys!!

Sounds like a blast! Track or street?

going from the word on the street off the clubGTI forum Peloquin is the way to go.

I have a quaife in my 020 box in my mk1, i cant fault it, but i am only running a kr 16v
