Dog bone on 03 210 cupraR

[speedstar]

Was going to fit a dog bone (i think its called) to my 03 210 cupra R as ive had it mapped by revo, this is because as much as i am happy with the performance with the car (and i realy am happy its a flying car on 4 wheels) lol. i do find that in first gear and second gear with any type of heavy foot it just wheel spins and i get some bounce of the wheels to. does anybody know if this will make a differance to the car as far as gripping the ground, or is there any other options to making the car put the power down better.

hell of alot mate for such a small thing you'll notice loads of diff and grips much much better in low gears

As Moffmeister said, It will make a big differance. You will get a lot of vibration for the first few hundred miles but well worth doing!

Agree with above, for less than £20 a bargain, looking to get one for my Mk2 Cupra.

[The MoffMeister]

[ArosaRacer]

[tedvagas]

[The MoffMeister]

maybe diff for each car and driving style

 

[speedstar]

you could get an LSD?

 

[speedstar]

what is LSD for

 

[danieltm]

Limited Slip Diff. Not cheap

 

[speedstar]

when you say not cheap are you meaning hundreds or what

 

[speedstar]

oh and thats a good point how long do the dog bones last for ? does it depend on the driver driving the car as to how long they last for.

 

[The MoffMeister]

well i think about 3k or so before you need to replace something like that, its not def though but im pretty sure

 

[speedstar]

[danieltm]
