1.4 seconds quicker to 100mph with a Quaife differential!

Performance Ford magazine proves the value of the Quaife automatic torque biasing helical gear limited slip differential in a 350bhp Ford Focus ST.

When Nick Thomas, Deputy Editor of Performance Ford, the UK's leading Ford tuning title, approached Quaife with the idea of conducting a back to back performance test on the Quaife ATB helical gear limited slip differential we were keen to accept the offer.

As well we might, because the team at Quaife Engineering has enormous confidence in the performance and reliability of the ATB differential unit. That's why it's the number one choice for race and rally users, fast road customers and the world's leading car manufacturers including Ford, General Motors and Chrysler.

Even so, Performance Ford's results were astonishing - using a 350bhp tuned Focus ST, a baseline set of figures were generated using the original ‘open' Ford differential.

The Quaife ATB helical gear limited slip differential was then installed and the same tests conducted, albeit in worsening weather conditions, which left the test track greasier than before, yet the Quaife unit shaved a massive 1.4 seconds off the 0-100mph time, as well as trimming 0.3 seconds from the 0-60mph sprint.

With a retail price of just £550.00 plus VAT, the Quaife ATB differential is designed and produced solely in the UK from quality Corus steel billets and is backed with the peace of mind of a lifetime warranty.

For the full story of this successful test of a Quaife automatic torque biasing helical gear limited slip differential, please read the March 2008 issue of Performance Ford magazine, available at all good newsagents.
