The rear end feels much more stable. Though I had cradle bushings put in the same time so part of it could be that, but . I have seen videos of the displacement that the differential undergoes at WOT, and it is a LOT. All that displacement is wasted energy basically, so the more snug the differential is (ie with aftermarket bushings) the more efficient (I guess that's the word) your car is.
