I doubt the money you spend on a OS Giken will drop your time that much. hoosire A6's $260 a pop. os giken $1k plus install= unk difference in time. Just my opinion and experience, yes better handling with LSD but you can 100% tell the difference in the drop in time.

IMHO the rank of autox mods is tires->sway bars->shocks->then who knows.

Master, what size A6's you running that are only $260 a piece?
i said, "LSD prolly the biggest performance upgrade in a auto x situtation next to better tires"

So im saying as well, tires make the biggest difference, and a upgrade LSD from a Open diff comes second. Sorry if my wording was not clear
