Does anybody know if Modena ATB’s are any good? Or for that matter the ‘boxes?

 

They do alter the handling when you "enjoy" the car - in commuting you wouldn't know it's there.

I'm running their front diff - and it transformed the car.
On ice and snow it takes more dedication to drive it (IMHO it's due to the fact that the front end reacts so much faster than the rear) - I need to be aggressive to go around bends without understeering.

I did some testing before the snow came on summer tires, and it felt alot more solid in the roundabouts, the front end wanted to pull itself in - but it was the same on dry stuff - it needs to be driven.

I'd do it anytime again, I really disliked having the inner front wheel spinning in the twisties.

Top stuff!

Oh...and another thing - I got mine from Lateral Performance.



Mark - where's me cheque?

Im lead to believe these diffs have setable ramp angles which alter the way they work - or is that on the plated diffs, anybody know?

 

Mouse,

In reply to your question - it is only the Modena plated diffs that have the variable ramp angles, they do a front one to fit all models, the rear one at this moment in time only fits the 180 diff. The most popular one is 85/85 split which we use in all the rally cars and high performance cars. The majority of fast road guys tend to use the ATB (automatic torque biasing) it is alot more user friendly all these will be on display at the Autosport International show - we are at stand 10307 - Hall 10 - come and take a look and I'll give you alot more info on them. We are the only UK agent for all Modena transmission and engine components, Frank Capo himself the owner of Modena will also be on the stand during the 4 days to help out with any questions.

Thanks for the interest,
