Best way to describe it, is you ever step on the gas pedal "too early" coming out of a tighter turn and notice one of the tires starts slipping? An LSD will prevent that by sending more torque to the other tire that has grip allowing you to "pull" through the turn. It makes a night and day difference and is by far one of the most noticeable improvements you can make to any car!

For sure! If there's interest I can look into organizing a group buy... KAAZ make the best LSD for our cars and have plenty in stock here in California. I'm just saving up a little more, since I want to change clutch, flywheel, and final drive all at the same time.
