Will normal driving heat up the vlsd to where it won’t lock ....or do you need to be launching or tracking to heat it up ..trying to guess the were on mine ...only been to the drag strip once and the rest would be mild launches ...I would assume even a rolling launch would wear it down as well

The biggest problem with the VLSD on a boosted car is it is very unpredictable. It can get you in a heap of trouble quick. Go ahead and do a Z1, Wavetrac, or an OS Giken. You will thank us later. Best money you will ever spend.

The 3 I have been considering are the quaife..wavetrac and the Z1. Not sure about quality of Z1 ...they say it’s not a rebranded item but I don’t think they have a manufacturing department .. I wasn’t impressed with their road race clutch kit and had to replace it after 5k miles
