carfreak85 Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 My question is what kind of driving did that guy have to do to exert hat much force all the time? I would be willing to bet lots of burnouts and racing did that, not offroading or plain old daily driving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tycho Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Haha. The Saturn 1.9L twin cam is a complete turd. For that lump to cause any aftermarket part to fail, the part would REALLY have to suck. Enter the phantom grip. It took 25,000 miles for the whole shebang to fail there. Along the way the synchros got so full of metal flakes that they quit biting. That's gotta be something you want as a subaru driver (considering how poorly the synchros work in general to begin with). If you want the measurement of just how LSD like the PG is...I measured between 10 and 15 lb-ft of breakaway torque between wheels...and less than 5 lb-ft of constant torque between them. This is with the green "race only" springs. I originally had the red springs and they literally did nothing. The golds are halfway between red and green in terms of pressure (lbs/in). Five pound feet. Put some 140 weight oil in the transmission and you'd probably get more than that! The Quaife is heavenly btw.
