Message	pulling the subframe out, with the 'gears' you'd still have to get the Diff off and rip it open. I don't know if i'd trust myself messing with smaller components inside the diff, although i'd probably end up doing it. If Drag racing is the main reason for the 'swap' than yes maybe in the fear of breaking axles the gears may be cheaper in the long run. I also like the fact that the TT rear is 'beefier'.. Just the initial $700 hit is what will deter most people. If you can do some work yourself and are a casual drag racer wanting some extra speed, the NA rear might be a better alternative. Either way hope it works out for you SirpriZ. -JokerF15
