Yeah, I got the limited slip for my car wink.gif
I have talked to a couple people that are running this overpriced chunk of metal in their mx6's and they say it really works and they like it alot.

So I paid about 1/3 of the price for one icon4.gif shifty.gif and decided that I will go ahead and try it out!



(I also got a complete nitrous wet kit for $200 last night cool.gif )

what exactly needs to be done to fit the lsd, the stock diff has a series of gears, 4 i think, so how does this work? blush.gif

First, it functions as a disc-type limited slip in cornering and braking. Disc plates exert pressure against spider gears using spring pressure to regulate the amount of slippage at the wheels.
Secondly, it works as a locker in hard acceleration. The disc plates pivot, locking spiders, causing both wheels to exert equal power to the road, providing less torque steer than an ordinary differential

jesus only $300 US... if this improves the strength of the differential as it claims thats a cheap improvement, any improvement in acceleration out of corners and a straight line i would consider a bonus considering the price of the other alternatives....

let us know how it goes for you red, i may very well get one ordered in and shipped to oz, signapore seems like the closest option..

I know someone who is using this with their F2T powered 6 and has no problems

I also know of someone who is using this in their FE3T powered probe/6 and just dynoed 402whp. And has no known problems.


So on that note.....You be the judge wink.gif
