Hey Doug,
My previous PB was 59.20 so its made an awesome difference.
The ratios made a big difference between Shell corner, the hairpin and the section that brings you back onto the straight. With the 5 speed the car seemed to have to labour a bit to pull through but now it just rips through the gears and doesn't get bogged down.
The diffs make all the difference in the same section also ( well its the most obvious ) with little to no inside wheel spin, especially the hairpin. I was getting some great " slingshot " effect through the corners which felt great.
Previously getting the power to the ground was an issue...
As you predicted the car can now get a little " rear end happy ", especially coming off the hill and onto pit straight. Is nice!!
Once again thanks for your help
If anyone can be arsed. Last lap was the fastest.

Still some room for improvement...
