Define "problems". Just because they arent noticing any issues with it doesnt mean its holding. And these guys "running around", are they doing anything besides stop-light racing? Have they taken it to the track?

I get my information on this from being involved with the Z and G communities and speaking with people at shops, meets and events.

Plus heres some info for you. I think the guys at Forged Performance know more than either of us.

Limited slip, worth it?

I got that 400whp # from the guy that is the head mechanic and shop owner of Denver's G/Z shop. That guy has driven more boosted G/Z's in his life than you or I have ever even looked at. If theres advice I am going to listen to, it would be his.

So what do you mean when you say "shitty" cause I take that as they are failing left and right under boost. The people that I know I do not believe have done road racing with the cars but have done many runs at the strip with no issues with putting traction down due to the VLSD failing. Mind you they are all running better fluid like RedLine or something. I'm not denying that there better LSD's on the market but I would not say the OEM one is "shitty"

Fine only in a straight line doesn't sound like it fulfills the purpose of the car.

The LSD is sealed. They may be running different diff fluid, though....

The stock VLSD sucks, get over it. On the track it's worthless. It's sad the Genesis and FRS get a proper torsen while we don't at ten thousand more.

You had better re-read this thread buddy. I never used that word once. I posted a # and that is what I was backing up.
