too much drifting with lsd

PSI also seems kind of low for RS3s, I'm usually running it up to 38psi hot but I don't think that's going to make up 4sec. Agree with softer rear

Agree with softer rear may help.

Couple thoughts....
Apex a little later in the turn so you don't hold as much steering while coming out of it. It'll let you get on the gas harder on exit. Seeing how you have the Stillen SC, worry more about hitting the perfect apex that maximizes your exit speed, especially before the long straights. Your apex will be a little different after the LSD install. Feather the gas so you don't spin the tires while holding as much throttle as possible and just enough steering so the back end doesn't come out while staying on line. I like to be steady on the throttle and correct the pitch outs with a quick jerk on the steering wheel. Make sure VDC is off. I swear my VDC comes on more with the OSG LSD than it did before and I don't even have any HP mods yet. Could be I drive it harder now that my Z isn't trying to kill me anymore. Got a link to the track layout?

If you have zero toe in the rear. Toe it in, 1/16" Zero toe, and toe out in the rear will give you snap-oversteer.
