I have no idea about more power in boosted frs but i know all thing in driving feeling is not power.
My car throttle response is awesome with E85/Header/FD4.88 .
Some cars may have more power but you feel they are not quick.
I really enjoy my NA gt86.

With a good gear ratio, good brakes (Essex) and good suspension (Racer-X) you never feel like you're on the limit.

The 5.1 change was one of the most substantial differences...besides Delicious and their E85 tune/kit.
Where did you get your 5.1 fdr from? I can't find any and when i go to weir's website I can't find it.

For the 5.1 Aceheader has pmed you, for the 4.88 from weir just email them Spence_weir@sbcglobal.netHe responded super quick for me and the price is $600 for the gears, bearings and assorted "fiddly bits", also an install from a local shop will be around $400-$1000 depending on who you know.


Alternatively you can contact spencer fabrication:

http://www.spencerfabricationcompany...differential-1


You simply contact them about the process and they can get you shipping estimates for you to send your diff, or they can charge you $1700, they'll send you the built diff of your choice and $600 gets refunded back to you when they receive your old diff. The latter is the best option to reduce downtime and is my plan for future.
