This unit is a direct replacement for the standard MINI open differential. Installation of a Quaife ATB Helical LSD differential transforms your car’s performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike a conventional plate-style limited slip differential, the Quaife ATB Helical LSD differential relies on gears rather than clutch plates for its operation.

Rather, the Quaife ATB Helical LSD differential automatically biases the torque away from the spinning wheel across the axle, to a constantly varying degree, and never locks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis differential has many benefits over a standard open differential, including maximizing traction and minimizing wheel spin, eliminating torque steer and snatching in front wheel drive cars compared to conventional LSD units, and a maintenance-free design which retains the standard oil lubrication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuaife differentials are proven in circuit and drag racing, rallying and road use, and is produced from Corus steel billets, and is CAD designed and CNC machined, then inspected to ISO 9001 standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Quaife ATB Helical LSD differential is second to none and is proven performance \"must-have\" for serious track day, autocross and time attack MINIs.

The amount of drive torque one wheel can get over the other is described as the\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e bias ratio\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e, a measure of the torque split across the axle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStandard, open differentials have a bias ratio of 1:1. They can only apply as much drive torque as there is available traction at one wheel. When one wheel loses grip, the total available drive is lost as well (at a 1:1 ratio). All your power goes out the slipping wheel - along the path of least resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTorque biasing differentials offer increased bias ratios over open differentials. For example, if a diff has a bias ratio of 2.5:1, then it can apply drive torque to the wheel with the most traction (gripping wheel) at 2.5 times the traction limit of the wheel with the least traction (slipping wheel). This is a significant improvement over an open diff… most of the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe problem is that when one tire has \u003cstrong\u003eLITTLE\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003eNO\u003c\/strong\u003e grip (zero axle-load), the other wheel gets \u003cstrong\u003eZERO DRIVE\u003c\/strong\u003e, because (basic math here): 2.5 x 0 = 0.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLift a wheel (or substantially unload a wheel) and you get zero axle-load on that side - that means that during the time the wheel is unloaded, the typical diff will \u003cstrong\u003eNOT\u003c\/strong\u003e power the wheel that’s still on the ground.
