Only ran them from a roll so no hands on with going up against one in first

I guess you have come full-circle and now agree with the content of my first post in this thread.

No. Gearing like that helps but isn't needed for that power... There are faster cars with more aggressive gearing. 430rwhp can hook in a Z all day with no drama unless your setup wack

Speaking of, how are the OEM VLSD's holding up to a TT setup? I have heard that if you work the OEM diff hard, the oils degrade in the center unit and it quits working. Yet I see a lot of people with SC/TT in their SIG and no diff swap.

Not that many guys with a SC/TT setup pushing their car to the limit. I would say there have been maybe 3-4 with a 370z who have pushed it. A lot of guys do some heavy street driving, canyon carving, but getting on the track is a whole different game with heat/limits.
