RE: Revo Diff kit
It allows you to tune how much power goes to the front and rear differential. This will also stop it from doing wheelies
It really isnt necessary if you are just bashing

RE: Revo Diff kit
Pros
- no wheelies...see below
- better handling (front tires will grip more than rear tires)
- able to adjust brake bias front to rear and vise versa
- strengthens tranny by removing reverse and making it forward only
Cons
- no wheelies (depends on what you like, however)
- must buy the rear brake kit, too, if you want rear brakes
- more moving parts = possible more to go wrong/fail/etc
- no reverse
Personally, as a basher, I really didn't care for the center diff/rear brake kit. For me simpler is better and who really gets tired of wheelies???
