our differentials are very different than the straight axels in the F-bodies...a little bit more work...no modifications just a good installer to build the diff for you otherise it will howl.

You will only need to reprogram if you have an A4. Texas Auto Gear located off of I45 a little North of downtown are excellent builders. They will charge $250 if you bring them the differential. They build for pretty much all of the Houston shops when it comes to the C5.
