Either you run a spool and give up any ability to turn the car around, or you compromise on what the differential can hold. SpeedFactory partnered with Wavetrac to solve it properly, and the result is a diff built for the highest horsepower drag applications that still lets you drive the car back to the trailer under its own power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIt Uses Your Existing FWD Axles\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the design decision that separates it from everything else, and it saves real money.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMost AWD differential options require you to modify or swap the passenger side cup to work with your axle setup. SpeedFactory designed around that entirely. This differential fits your \u003cstrong\u003eexisting FWD B-series axle sets\u003c\/strong\u003e with no modification and no cup swap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've already got FWD axles you're happy with, they carry straight over. That's one less expensive part in an already expensive build, and one less thing to source before the car goes back together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWorth noting: AWD CR-V front axles are also compatible with the standard version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Or Pro-Level?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference is spline count and what axles you're running.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStandard (27-spline)\u003c\/strong\u003e is the version for existing FWD B-series axle sets and AWD CR-V front axles.

This is the version for the highest horsepower drag applications, and it's in the fastest Hondas built to date.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePick based on your axles rather than your ambitions. The Pro-Level only makes sense if you're running the DSS 28-spline hardware it was designed around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy Not Just Run A Spool?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFair question if you're building a drag car, and the answer is drivability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA spool locks both axles together permanently. Excellent for putting power down in a straight line, miserable for everything else. You can't turn the car around at the end of the strip without fighting it, and loading a trailer usually means disconnecting axles or getting someone to help push.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis differential drives both wheels the way a spool does when you need it, and still lets you steer normally when you don't. Turn around at the top end, drive it onto the trailer, and go home without a wrestling match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat Makes A Wavetrac Different\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBeing honest, because helical differentials get oversold. Wavetrac, Quaife, Torsen, and MFactory are all torque-biasing helical designs and they all work well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat separates the Wavetrac is a patented internal design that addresses the weakness every helical diff shares. Standard helicals rely on axle load to generate bias, so if a wheel unloads completely, torque bias drops toward zero and the differential behaves like an open unit at exactly the wrong moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWavetrac's design maintains grip in those low traction conditions, which means both wheels keep driving instead of one spinning uselessly. On a launch where weight is transferring hard, that's the difference between hooking and hazing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eYou'll Need Bearings\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWorth sourcing alongside the differential rather than after.

Transferable is worth more than people realize too, since it follows the car if you sell it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e1992-2000 Honda Civic\u003cbr\u003e1994-2001 Acura Integra\u003cbr\u003e1997-2001 Honda CR-V\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eB-series AWD applications.

Drag racing, competition, or any build where a spool would solve one problem and create three others. It works with the axles you already have, it's backed for life, and it's what's underneath some of the fastest Hondas ever built.
