You would have 200+bhp less and more weight helping traction. Are you sure you don't have an open differential and a set of nankangs that are harder than Peter North's wang?
Its a s4 TII diff. The rear is a little stiff. I have Cusco coilovers and solid mounts everywhere. So that's part of it. And I have a fuel cell which takes a lot of the weight out of the rear reducing traction some also. But I'm not worried about that. I have a set of Weld Pro stars with some M/T slicks and skinnies for the front when I want it to hook
