Well, after a few days driving the car with the LSD fitted I can say that it fulfils what I hoped for. It's no miracle solution for wheel spin and torque under steer but it helps so much. Without pushing the car I can't tell there's a LSD fitted. Wish the car had it fitted from factory. It's really a must have for +350 BHP, less if you track the car. Really pleased with it. :driver:
There's still more news to come. For now I still haven't finished the corner balancing. I'm doing it at a friend's garage free of charge. We're still learning the ropes on my car. His Lotus Exige was much easier to balance. :laugh:
I'll leave a couple of pictures with friends. :smiley:

Spot on - it is no miracle, it cannot beat 4x4, but it's a must for high powered FWD.
That Honda tough :signLOL: - had the pleasure to test one, even on a dump track was only less that 3 second slower than mine. Honda completelly stock, mine with all the mods on slicks.

Nice :happy2: Glad you like the LSD :smiley: Very subtle isn't it, until you kick it into action!

I've driven that Type-R FK8 for a short and not that fast drive. It steers really well on roundabouts and tight corners. I've rode shotgun when testing against a stock 7.5R DSG. It gains at top end a bit. I don't like its aesthetics, though. :smiley:
