If you're going to get a ball diff, make sure you spend a few extra $ and get ceramic balls instead of the plain steel ones. The ceramic balls will be less prone in getting flat spots on them if you have your diff to loose and it slips.

A gear diff with 500,000 wgt oil in it works very well at the front of a car, you get great acceleration out of the corners, along with being able to turn hard into the corners.
If you're going to get a ball diff, make sure you spend a few extra $ and get ceramic balls instead of the plain steel ones. The ceramic balls will be less prone in getting flat spots on them if you have your diff to loose and it slips.

The ceramic balls will last longer but it takes more tension on the diff bolt to get the proper slip. either way it will work fine. Have a whole season on my steel ones and I'm not ready to replace them yet. plus the ceramic balls will wear out diff rings faster.

I actually have the original xi. it is my understanding that the xi sport is a combination of the xi and the new ultimate. Both the xi and the ultimate were offered as fully decked out touring chassis. a true sport version of the xi was never offered. I don't have any experience with the xi sport. sorry but im not much help with those parts. now tuning questions I can still try and help. basic tuning is the same regardless of the chassis.
