doba_s · 12-31-2008, 10:28 AM

I made a short video to compare RPMs Stock vs 3.62 Dinan differential on M-DCT car. A you can see the difference is not that big, it is only about ~350-400rpms

Stock 3.15

Dinan 3.62

no high revs and high speed driving for a long time for 1200 miles ... then you need to change diff oil and you are ready to go.

Wow! Nice to hear that. Is there anything that can be done to the 6MT?

mixja · 12-31-2008, 10:22 PM

Did you have any issues with the diff housing as per http://www.m3post.com/forums/showpos...0&postcount=18

Doc · 01-01-2009, 01:01 AM

Now that is a mod worth doing. With an exhaust, chip and 3.62 diff, its bye bye c63

Change brake pads to track spec and tires to Bridgestone RE11s and nothing short of a GT3 or GTR will be able to keep up

saintm3 · 01-01-2009, 04:58 AM

One of the best mods to do.

I am not sure what to tell you but Dinan has 4.10 FD for the MT cars

Yes, he was right ... you must change the differential cover ... in my case it was OEM cover from 6MT which is for some reason a bit deeper than DCT covers and it clears 3.62 final drive without any problems.
