ive had 4kg/12kg and plenty of DCCD centres. (all my current gearboxes have dccd, and i pack spares!)

i dont do any circuit work (maybe once in a blue moon), only rarely do drags.

basically the heavier the diff, the better the handling, a DCCD at full lock is equivelent to a 20kg centre (run full lock at the drags).

although, if you work the DCCD centre hard, they loosen up and eventually suffer eternal rear bias only, which in my opinion- effectively the same as leaving the diff unpowered, and near the same torque split as one of those cusco centres.

possum bourne motorsport were at one stage offering rewinds on 5 speed centres.

to be honest, dccd for me is about having fun. i'm a hoon at heart, so i just like turning tires. if you want to be fast on the track, i'd be opting for a 20kg, and relinquishing the car from daily duties.
