I've boosted my 16 GTPP with a Roush P2 (625whp).

Currently its running the std. 3.73 Trac-Loc (not Torsen, its a EUDM car).

I want to go 3.31s.... can I just buy a loaded 3.31 and drop it straight in, or am I missing something? The current diff has 60k miles on it and is trashed.

Thanks for any insights:)

Speedo I can fix with ForScan (if im not mistaken) or maybe even my NGauge.

Does anyone make a 3.31 gear kit? Weighing up the +/- of a rebuild or a replacement....

Thanks.

I corrected my speedo with my NGauge when I went from 3.15 to 3.73.

The only built Super8's I have seen are 3.15, 3.55, and 3.73. I definitely prefer the Torsen over Traction-loc which left me with 3.55 and 3.73.

If I were to do it again, I would rebuild. There are some really awesome gear options and traction options that would have been better for me.

Cool, thanks for the info.

Rebuilding has the advantage of not needing to ship a diff pumpkin from the US to Europe.... I can't find any loaded 3.31s on this side of the Atlantic.

You can get the gears but no one makes replacement clutches and steels that I know of.
