I went this morning and looked at all the pieces that came back from the cryogenic company, everything looks good. Pretty much looks the same as when I sent it other than they put some sort of oil on some of the pieces.

I ordered all of the extra OEM parts from JEH this afternoon, 400-something dollars worth. Rebuilding a differential assembly ain't no fun. The cryogenic place only charged me $176 for everything including shipping, so that worked out nicely. As of now every single piece I need to get the car back on the street has been ordered. Once I get the car back and things are settled I'll mess with installing a yellow box to fix the MPH.

The dealership is really busy, they won't be able to start on my car until Thursday (estimate). They said the differential rebuild would be a day's work...so I still might see the car next weekend. I'll be installing my Sparco's sometime early next week when the bolts and seatbelt buckles come in.

This is not a flame, rather a honest question. How would cryogenic treated metal parts be stronger? Wouldn't freezing parts actually make them brittle? If it's not too much trouble could you please explain the process? Thanks
