Oh, you got that from the website. I'm sure they'll work with you on pricing if you ask.

Yep, exactly, the website said 1206 GBP (or around $1900US). That is a lot for some traction, even though the effect is fantastic.

West, did you notice something in upshifting time?
Did you notice the Quaife is smaller and lighter?
Because on an SMG car, I clearly felt the difference! And I have vids as well, to proove it improved.

Next time try to concentrate on that and pls report
