You have had both a 12 bolt and now a 9". Between the 2 can you feel any difference in handling or power loss? Have you gone to the track and seen any differences in ET or MPH? Do you really think any one is better than the other? I'm just asking cause I see alot of the same questions over and over. Thanks for your input.

Differences I feel between the 12 and 9" are the car feels much more positive when I roll into the gas at the apex of a turn. It is hard to describe the feeling I would not say more confident but it feels better the the 12 bolt. As for launching the car 100% difference it has a wicked engagement feeling, with the 12 there was a very very small amount of slop in the drive line I mean very small amount now the 9" it is all gone. I also run a M6 so the auto guys may never feel this i did though. I launch the car on a 2 step at 5500 on Hooser QTP and she dead hooks. It felt great between shifts much harder hitting feeling .My ET were about the same with the 12 bolt I ran 11.8 before It was puled out. Now with the 9" the Et is the same really I ran between 11.77 and 11.98 but it is hard to say with a stick car. I feel I have not lost anything.

Hope my input helps.
