The engine is looking sweet - I reckon you should have more than enough power as-is!

Matt, the wavetrac helps keep the wheels planted. Without it, on hard acceleration only one wheel will spin. Also helps with cornering and low traction conditions. I don't know exactly how it works, it's a bit over my head as well mate, but that's the gist of it

That video explains an LSD pretty well, it basically stops you lighting up one wheel with a lot of power…
The Wavetrac differs from the Quaife by not using clutch packs, therefore needing very little maintenance and being more effective.
I bought my Wavetrac when I was in California in September. Its a truly amazing bit of kit!
Looking good Andy!
