"Cliff notes: Both are Torsen-type LSDs. Both are arguably one of the best performance mods you can make to the 335. Both have similar installations. In 99.999% of daily driving & track use you would never be able to tell the difference.

Wavetrac is less $, USA company, tension at zero load provides more lock when one wheel is airborn or on glare ice with no friction.

Quaife has long history of reliability, better lubrication.

Bottom line: This is a coin flip IMO. Stop wasting time worrying about minute differences and buy either one. Most important issue is to get the chunk installed properly by a very experienced shop into your final drive."

"With one wheel off the ground (or spinning out), both wavetrac and quaife function at or near their minimal lock %. ( I refer to : "some % greater than zero but near zero" )

In the spinning wheel case, the quaife is closer to zero lock % than the wavetrac, but both are at a low % regardless."
