My mechanic has received my Carbonetics LSD. The OEM bolts for the crown gear are a bit short (22mm) and only get 6 full turns, Is this enough or do I need longer bolts? With the stock diff I got 8 full turns.
Thanks

 

contact guard lsd on here or one of the shops that works on porsche motorsports lsd's or the carbonetics team that designed it.

 

Will the bolt tq to spec?

 

Haven't tried it yet. That is what Carbonetics said. If it does it's ok. My car has 800+ lbsft. I want to be safe. I already destroyed A 996CUP LSD.

 

Call Akram at Motorwerks. I have a similar setup on my car.
Good luck
Robert

 

Thanks guys. OEM bolts torqued@140lbs .

 

so correct bolt n everything worked out howz the car like the diff?

 

The LSD has been installed in my secnd tranny with taller 1sr,2nd, and 3rd gers. It,s going to be a while before I swap the gearbox. I'll let you know when it's done.

 

Did the Hat break away from the diff?

 

Yes. It started making some noise under accel. and the following day it just broke away. It only lasted 2-3000 miles.

 

I managed to get my hands on the Ultra rare RSR Diff... it's similar to Cup but a Billet Diff... I narrowed it down to this or the Guards, personally I think that's the only 2 that are up to the job for our high Torque motors.

 

The RSR is very aggressive, but strong. I guess it all depends on your power and application.
