Get a performance one by Quaife. Not sure what you would need to do in order to get your hands on one but some boosted members have them. Reach out to them for more info.

So the LSD by Quaife is an option.

Cusco makes a diff, too.

Check with user Rochester to see if he still his sedan diff. He just upgraded to 4.08 gears.

Good luck.

Note the S coupes and sedans have a LSD instead of the verts open diff, but less aggressive gearing, if you're thinking about finding a done for unit.

The OP has a Vert 6MT, so why would he want to step down from 3.916 gears to a 3.692 final drive?

Pretty sure he doesn't want to slow down his car.

I didn't know the 'Vert needed the extra help from the ring gear. I guess a 4.08 would be a better path.
