Just dropped my turbo for a RWD conversion!
Me like RWD.
I got the car back and It's awesome! It feels alive! The power comes on quicker, the steering is more responsive. And it feels and respond like a RWD. This was a great move from my point of view.
Did you have the car re-aligned at the same time? Or are you driving with stock TT alignment settings? Enjoy it!
Congrats!! I love mine and wouldn't ever go back... The biggest improvement was when I corner balanced it... Night and day at the track! I haven't done a LSD yet but I'd love to drive a car with one installed one day to see how it feels. Maybe I'll bite...
You Need (2) 996 341 131 90 , I can't remember exactly what we paid, but Pelican Parts has them for $45.00 each and the accompanying barrings for clearance., I believe Suncoast was right aroudn there. So for $90.00 if you want to reverse back to AWD you can do it with ease.
We installed a Guard LSD in our car while it was AWD, figure since we went that far might as well go RWD for better weight transfer. Just have to re-corner balance her now.

Guards is pretty expensive but it's the best by far... I ended up doing the Quaife ATB... I have a friend there and got an amazing deal plus it has a lifetime warranty... the Quaife works with gears rather than discs... there is a downside if one rear wheel (RWD) leaves the other wheel becomes inactive but then again it takes a hell of a lot to get your rear wheel off the ground and if your doing that you would want to slow down anyway... lol.... I was a little concerned regarding power levels (would the Quaife diff hold up!)... I was reassured they have been running these in very high HP cars, Vipers etc without any issues.
If it doesn't work out and I feel uncomfortable with it, I will remove, but in my eyes it's worth a try!
