I have a similar question. Are these differentials much better than stock? And about how much go do they hold up to?

I was just told that the car has the SLP option auburn differencial. I don't even know if it is an upgrade I just don't know why someone would mention it if it was stock

yeah it is an "upgrad" from the torsion and some people say it's will hold, but i imagine it will break sooner or later if you beat on it... and as far as the teeth breaking off im sure that is possible...

you also have "458RWHP/493RWTQ" lol I have something closer to stock. I wouldn't expect any stock differential to hold up with your power lol
