Will a 1.6 LSD be ok for turbo use?

Braineack 08-25-2009 11:20 AM

doesn't address the problem with the weak ring gear.

it will work but a 1.8 will hold up to the abuse better. The 1.6 differentials are weak, and any enthusiast would do well to replace them, esp if you drive agressivly.

thats what I figured.
I found a 1.8 car with it, I was going to build up a 1.6 for track use. but I think im going to continue with my plan to sell that car.
thanks.

umm dude it is a simple swap takes a few hours at most no reason to throw out a perfectly good car cause its a 1.6. Oh wait did someone swap a 1.6 dif into a 1.8 car. Wow that is fail lol.

This reminds me of a slightly old VW ad: "My old car had crusty wiper blades, but my new VW has nice new ones."
