weird thing
again im 16 and really new to cars and im sorry if this is a really dumb question (and it probably is)
but we've been getting some rain here lately (la) and my wheels sometimes do little burnouts if i got alot of people in the car or i press a little hard on the gas
but the weird thing is that ive seen some of the marks they left, and i can feel it too but its only on my rear right tire not so much my left...
normal , not normal? or am i just a noob

RE: weird thing
no, its 2wd its just that one wheel is able to spin freely from the other, or slower, so that daily driving is easier such as making turns. Such as when you turn, the inside wheel will spin slower (right?) than the outside one.

RE: weird thing
Our rides come stock with an open differential. You get power to both wheels, except when they loose traction. Then, all power goes to the passenger side tire. It will go to the driver side tire if you're making a hard left turn. This is the reason many of us have upgraded to a limited slip differential such as the Ford Racing t-lok, the Detroit TrueTrac or the Auburn limited slip. These put power to both wheels. Unless you're modding with some bolt-on's and get a tune (like an SCT X-cal or Diablo Predator) you'll probably be fine without a limited slip.

hamidlmt,
If you don't mind my asking, where did you get the Auburn and how much was it? I've been researching LSD's for a while now and it seems like the Auburn outperforms all competitors by a significant margin. I remember your saying something in a previous post about getting a good deal on the Auburn; do you think it's worth the price difference over, say, a Ford Racing t-lok?
Thanks,
Tim

RE: weird thing
imho, with only a v6 a ford oem lsd is more then enough. The auburns are nice but you really aren't getting anything over the ford oem lsd when powering with only 200ish rwhp after the cai and tune. The ford oem lsd will save you some bucks over the others so you have more $ for other mods and offer you plenty in turning both them rear wheels. Gears are nice but chew up milage. I wonuldn't go more 3.55 unless your looking to turn some 1/4 runs. 3.73 or 4.10s are the bigger options but I feel are a waste behind a V6. Your 3.27's and 3.55's are good balanced ratios.

btw... I'm getting about the same mileage with 3.73 gears... I think the intake and tune is compensating for them. And, I just dig 'em! They're great off the line, don't raise rpm's too much at speed, have easy passing power without downshifting. With 3.55's, I don't think you'd feel much of a difference. Though, I think they're a good choice if you're super or turbo charging.
