Ok let me first say that i have searched this and couldnt find a direct answer. I have a 96 a4 with 3.08 gears. I want to upgrade to 3.42 with lsd. I was looking over modifications and it said that i couldnt use the 3.42's because i have a 2 series differential and i would have to have a 3 series. So does that mean i have to upgrade everything when i change gears? Someone please explain this to me as i am clearly lost. Thanks for the help.

It means you have to upgrade your differential to a 3 series. I take it you'll be getting a torsen lsd which is a 3 series so you'll be fine.

O ok so as long as i get the lsd i am ok and i can get the gears. Well i guess it doesnt matter then. Thanks for clearing that up. Now all i have to do is find the lsd for a good price.1996 Camaro -- SLP CAI, Motorvator TB spacer, MSD 8.5 mm wires, 180 thermostat, Pacesetter headers, Catco 3 in cat, TSP Rumbler, custom painted interior, 18x9.5 Z06 replica wheels, Nexen N3000 265/35r18 tires, - Best 1/4 mile 15.3@89mph
