Default Difference between Motive and Motive performance gears?

What is are the differences between the Motive gears and the Motive performance gears? I just ordered some and realized that they are just the regular Motive gears....will they be fine? Or do I need to shell out $200 for a new ring and pinion that is the Motive Performance?

They Both Suck - Noisy. Use Genuine Gm Gears. They Are The Quietest. I Have Them In A 8.5 Inch In A 1971 Camaro. No Noise At All.

Use the Motive's in the red box,the blue box sucks.
As for as the noise an Whine that depends on how good your installer is.
All in All GM is a much better gear.
