The beauty of the Wavetrac is that it is ideally suited to high performance road cars that see track use. It is very strong, yet transparent to both driver and traction control electronics during regular driving. On the track or in spirited road use, it provides drive to both wheels without the handling issues that traditional clutch type diffs create (there is no tendency to push/understeer with a Wavetrac).
The Wavetrac outperforms other gear type differentials because unlike them, it won't lose drive when one axle is unloaded (which happens more often than you'd think).
Lastly, one of the most underrated benefits of the Wavetrac is its smooth delivery of power near the limit. Its patented design makes for a very predictable, smooth addition of power when you need it most - when things are at their limits: on the edge of traction mid-corner and using throttle to keep it there; or coming into a corner a little hot, but quickly back on it to maintain exit speed...
These situations are often subjective to the driver, but the benefit can be felt. The Wavetrac makes you faster because it lets you drive with confidence. Smooth is fast.
Simply put - Wavetrac is the only gear diff on the market that does not lose all drive when one axle is unloaded. Axles become unloaded in aggressive driving, track cornering, extremely slick surfaces, etc. It happens more than most people realise.
We won't go into torque bias ratios or the concept of how torque biasing diffs work at this point. Let's get to how the Wavetrac affects performance:
For example, you have a conventional gear diff (OEM, Quaife, MF, OBX, Truetrac, Torsen, etc.), you're on a race track for a track day and during cornering your inside wheel bumps over the curbing. This is normal for track driving. The issue is that for the brief moments your inside tire becomes unloaded when bouncing over curbs, your other wheel is not getting drive - is not putting power down. Gear diffs need load on both axles in order to function. The result on a track (or during aggressive driving) is that there are many times when a normal gear diff supplies only intermittent power to the gripping wheel.
Now, same track with Wavetrac: the patented cam device in the Wavetrac prevents loss of drive when that inside wheel is unloaded. The device is able to generate a load inside the diff (to replace the lost load as it happens) that can then be biased to the gripping wheel - in the end making more consistent power delivery through a corner. That makes the car more predictable, and faster overall.

WARNING: Cancer and Reproductive Harm
Wavetrac is a differential brand designed by Autotech driveline. They are a company that creates aftermarket drivelines for the automotive industry. They cater to a variety of vehicles from domestic muscle cars to import sport compact performance vehicles. The company has been in the differential manufacturing business for years and has created some of the most technologically advanced differentials in the market. Today, they are recognized as one of the leading experts when it comes to automotive differentials.
Better Technology
Wavetrac differentials are proven to be better than its competitors due to their ability to create a better grip in low traction conditions. It enables the vehicle to have power on both of its wheels which results in faster acceleration and faster cornering speeds. This is why they have become the brand of choice of enthusiasts who want to have better control over their vehicle.
All of their products are made up of high-quality materials. Their differentials are made up of 9310 steel gears and either from hardened billet or forged steel bodies. To make sure everything is bolted together properly, Wavetrac uses ARP bolts all throughout. ARP is the best brand when it comes to bolt fasteners. With these combinations, you can be sure that you get the toughest differential out there that would be able to withstand the harshest driving condition and punishment given during high-spirited driving.
If you want to improve how your vehicle performs, do not forget to upgrade your differential as well. All the world's horsepower would not help you if you cannot transfer it efficiently to your wheels onto the ground. Wavetrac is a company that could address this dilemma. With a list of differential packages for different vehicles, they definitely have something that would fit your requirement.
