My OS Giken will run over 265F without the diff cooler on during a track session.

Helical gear type atbd’s (lsds) don’t ever really wear out in theory, and require no special oil additives either and like spooler said, they do tend to run cooler IMO, for hpde, a diff cooler isn’t necessary with a helical gear lsd, just change the diff fluid more frequently like every other event or twice a year depending on how you drive etc and use top line gear oil like motul or redline. I am still a bit skeptical about the life expectancy of the carbon plates in the wavetrac never wearing out vs a traditional gear lsd like a torsen. That said, I’ve never heard of one wearing out so realistically it probably isn’t an issue. |
