That's your open diff doing exactly what open diffs do, sending power to whichever wheel has the\n  least grip. The Wavetrac fixes that. It's a helical gear limited slip differential, built from the\n  ground up by Autotech Driveline in the USA, and it's become the go-to swap for anyone running a B-series\n  who's tired of one-wheel burnouts on the way out of every turn. Drop it in and that power finally goes\n  where it can do something, both front wheels pulling instead of one wheel spinning and the other just\n  along for the ride.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHere's Why An Open Diff Holds You Back\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n  An open diff sends power to the wheel that's easiest to spin, which sounds harmless until you're\n  loading up the chassis mid-corner and your inside wheel lifts or unloads. At that exact moment, an open\n  diff just gives up on that wheel and dumps all the power into spinning it uselessly, so you get wheel\n  hop, a chirp from the tire, and a car that doesn't pull out of the corner the way it should. Cheaper\n  clutch-type LSDs help, but they wear out, get grabby, and need fluid changes to keep working. You feel\n  it most in a front-wheel-drive car with real power, because that's exactly when an open diff costs you\n  the most.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eBuilt To Keep Working When Other Diffs Quit\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n  This is where the Wavetrac earns its reputation. Most gear-type LSDs, including Torsen and Quaife\n  style units, go quiet the instant a wheel unloads, the same problem as an open diff, just less often.\n  Wavetrac's patented wave profile is built specifically to solve that. As the side gears rotate against\n  each other under a near-zero load, the wave ramps climb and push the gears apart, which creates\n  internal load and keeps both wheels driving instead of letting one spin free. It kicks in automatically\n  whenever the car needs it and backs off the rest of the time, so the car still drives normally around\n  town. You get the grip when you're pushing and none of the clunky behavior when you're not.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e9310 Steel Gears, ARP Fasteners, Built To Outlast The Car\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n  The internals are 9310 alloy steel, the same high-strength gear material used in serious motorsport\n  applications, run inside a case-hardened steel body. Every fastener is ARP, so nothing in this diff is\n  the weak link. It's a gear diff with no clutch packs to wear out and no fluid additive to chase, so it's\n  built to run the life of the car without a rebuild. Autotech Driveline backs every Wavetrac with a\n  transferable Limited Lifetime Warranty, which tells you how confident they are that this thing isn't\n  coming back.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDrops Into Your B-Series Case\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n  This Wavetrac is built for the 4.33 inch ring gear B-series case, so it covers a wide spread of Civic,\n  Integra, and Del Sol applications running the B16A, B17A, B18A, or B18B. If your car's already making\n  good power, or you're planning to, this is the diff that lets that power actually get to the ground\n  instead of getting wasted on the inside wheel. Heads up before you order: this is the diff itself, you'll\n  still need to press it into your existing differential case during a transmission rebuild, so plan the\n  install around that.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFits These Cars\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1990-2001 Acura Integra GS\/LS\/RS (B18A\/B18B)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1992-1993 Acura Integra GS-R (B17A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1999-2000 Honda Civic Si (B16A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1994-1997 Honda Del Sol VTEC (B16A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat You Get\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWavetrac helical gear limited slip differential (60.309.160WK)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits the 4.33 inch ring gear B-series case\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePatented wave profile design for grip during near-zero load conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9310 alloy steel gears in a case-hardened steel body\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eARP fasteners throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned, developed, and manufactured in the USA by Autotech Driveline\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaintenance free, no rebuilds needed under normal use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTransferable Limited Lifetime Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n  Note: Wavetrac limited slip differential (part number 60.309.160WK) for the Honda B16A, B17A, B18A, and\n  B18B, fitting the 4.33 inch ring gear case.
