I recently installed the Madness driveline package which includes the Quaife LSD, Lightweight Flywheel, Competition Clutch, and Rogue Short Shifter. What a difference! I get more bite from the clutch which is no longer overpowered from my engine mods. The engine spools up quicker, and I get the power on the road. No more of that single wheel wheelspin. If I use all the power, both wheels will spin, but evenly.

Downside? Some "audible chatter" from the flywheel/clutch assembly due to the total lack of dampening springs in either component. Plus the aluminum transmits more engine noise than the more dense stock flywheel.

Thanks for the info. Please keep us informed. I think the drivetrain package is on the mind of many others who have done the usual performance mods and are looking at the next manner in which to blow some disposable income on their favorite toy.
