Quaife vs Wavetrack??
Well from the research that I have done, it looks like none of the BMW factory diffs used in the E38 were limited slip. Looking into what options there are to upgrade a diff to LSD comes back with the recommendation of either Quaife ATB Helical LSD (UK based) or Diffsonline using a Wavetrack carrier. The Quaife unit is gear driven and supposed to be really solid, where as the Wavetrack unit still uses friction plates.
Has anyone ever come across a Quaife diff, and is the cost of converting an open diff to an LSD version worththe time and money?
