I recently reached out to Puddy Mod to talk about getting a diff. I’m torn between stage 2 and stage 4. I don’t think I’ll launch the car considering it’ll be stock tranny and axles still which leads me towards stage 2, but I mean upgrading axles isn’t the hardest thing so I can definitely see myself doing it just so I can be a little more reckless. The price difference between the 2 is also a reason I’m having this discussion.

So I am hoping to gather some real world experience with these? Which do you prefer (if you have had both), advantages of one over the other?

I have the puddy mod stage 3 with oem lsd and 3.9 gears and so far i like it. But i'm pretty genital on my car. Whats the price now a days for a stage 2 and stage 4 ?

I originally wanted the stage 3 but he either didn’t have the needed parts or doesn’t offer it anymore. As for pricing it’s honestly not bad but I don’t know earlier year pricing. Stage 2 is $1675, and stage 4 is $3260. The worst part is I still have to buy an AP1 diff to send to him too since I’m not wanting to get my car boosted and not be immediately able to drive it.

Anyone know what power levels the stages correlate to? Also, if you're considering stage 4, does the inlinepro R200 diff kit look more cost effective? I'm in a similar position and a reinforced diff is in my future.

Puddymod posted a youtue video of a stage 3 diff with an OS giken two days ago, so it appears he still offers it.
