All sounds great but what is the advantage in a gu front diff apart from a wider swivel housing and stronger cv. Also why no tube bars on the front of the vehicle? The stronger cv's IS the advantage.

Even if they run 25psi through a standard kit (no cooler) then they would only last one stage. But with a petrol whats to stop you playing with crank, pistons, cams and serious head work etc and then you still have more power than a kit form diesel running 25psi

Standard off the shelf turbo kits on diesels should be allowed as a standard petrol still has more power, Just my thought!
