Curious if there are any plans to put out a setup that will work on the Saturn Ion Red Lines/Cobalt SS platforms?

Thanks in advance,

been waiting on it... i think its the same price as buying a lsd from GM though... they are both 1200 i think.

[slowion2]

I highly doubt that, it's typically 300-500, if it was 1200 that would be a huge waste of money

for real. If you spend that much on a PG .... your crazy lol

[MGM1979]

Phantom Grip is like $300...LSD tranny (best I can find) is $1600...quaiffe (best I can find) is $1400...

[PG] is a joke all it does is put stress on stock spider gears to lock it in place when it was not ment for that. If your going to get it I say save some money go out and buy some super glue and glue you diff together [img]{SMILIES_PATH}/lol.gif[/img]

thats funny because we've been using them for years with much success on numerous turbo and nitrous cars. it's a simple design that works pretty well for how little money you pay for it.

I have only seen 2 failures, one looked like a fluke and the other was just from the driver continuously abusing the car at the track.

I guess the saturn trannys are stonger the the MTX-75 tranny that was in my old car then. I'll go stand in the conor and cry now because I look like an ass :lol:

[slowion2]

lol

well it all comes down to how strong the spider gears are since they're taking the brunt of it. I really don't know much about the foci transmissions or differential design, but the LL0 were "alright" when it came to this. I do know on the F23 that we both run they are considered a weak point, and are suggested to be replaced with the steel ones of the same gear cut....from a geo lsi....yeah....lol

[S.Bretz]

LSD trans and open diffetrans are pretty close to the same...LSDjust has a spring thingy that puts pressure on the spider gears.

i thought quafe when you said pg.. sorry... if i do anything personally it will be an lsd swap

Yes the saturn spider gears are alot stronger than the crap that comes in what ever cdw-27 platform vehicle you own'd.
In our trans the diff pin launches.

In the mtx-75 the teeth wear off the spider gears.
But on a plus note, the mtx-75 quaife is about $600

The mp3 quaife it about $1200!!!
