Well, having run few hundred kilometers I guess I got the message.... the fun factor gain is (in my eyes) simply worth every single buck it cost ...

Whatever gear I shift in now, it runs like hell, even against a steep hill climb...

But, to be honest I gotta admit some downsides, too: 0-100kmph cannot be covered on first+second gears anymore, at around 80kmph I must shift a third gear, and the mileage dropped by approx same ratio the diff had been cut (with the "summer driver" I don´t care a bit about).
