    Have anyone used or heard of the Wavetrac® LSD (Limited Slip Differential), SRT-8 ???


    I'm looking to put a LSD on my car ASAP. Any feed back about the LSD's out there would be great.

    Thank you:usflag:

    I have heard of the Wavetrac for our cars but have not seen it up close or in action, to confirm its performance.

    Wavetrac lsd

    Hey is some more info:

    AUTOTECH is the same place that sales the Quaife LSD.... This is what they say about there WAVETRAC LSD....


    It comes standard with carbon-fiber bias plates for the best all around performance.

    These friction plates provide a mechanism to tune the response of the differential as a function of applied torque load. The applied torque load manifests itself as an axial load from the differential pinions into the housing. This axial force is then considered a normal force into the friction plate, and as a function of the effective coefficient of friction, will provide a resistive torque to the rotational motion of the differential pinions. The resistive torque will add to the resistance of relative rotation of all components within the differential. The resistive force, however, is non-uniform since it is a function of the axial load from the differential pinions. The unbalance of the resistive torque will manifest as non-uniform energy absorption within the differential causing a bias ratio.

    Superior Design, Materials, and Construction

    Designed from a clean sheet, the new Wavetrac® Differential brings current gear technology to the market. Internally, its gear tooth forms are optimized for strength and improved oil film retention over competitive designs. Our gear package is smaller, reducing overall mass, yet is more durable. Attention was also paid to the side gear/axle interface, putting as much material thickness as possible in this critical area - most important when power levels get high.

    Each Wavetrac® Differential is crafted from the highest quality materials available. The internal gears are made from high strength 9310 alloy steel. The diff bodies are machined from case hardened steel billet. To complete the package, every Wavetrac® differential is built exclusively using high quality, high strength fasteners from ARP®, the world leader in fastener technology.

    LIFETIME WARRANTY INCLUDED

    *Does not fit 2009 or Newer Cars. Only 2006-2008 Charger, Magnum, 300C and Challenger SRT-8.
    PRICE: $1,295.00
