In super tight corners I feel the inside wheel spinning through after which it locks up. The LSD is stock OS Giken. Does this mean that stock OSG setup isn't good, i.e. it's too loose and should be setup specifically for "higher power" i.e. to lock up sooner?
May be the case. The locking can be set in a couple different ways, how fast it locks and how much it locks. I like progressive lock the OTS setup has, not an on-off switch, so it works better on track, but I want the amount of lock to be increased significantly to avoid wheel spin.
OS can tune both and will set it up accordingly. It seems pretty clear the OTS setup is on the soft side for whatever reason.

Yeah, I learned my lesson on my first one. I had my new one tuned by OS Giken. I called and was talking to them. $150 bucks, Oh yeah I am getting mine tuned.
