Limited Slip Differential

Been looking at a limited slip differential for quite some time. Not like i need it since our TL's dont smash insane ammounts of power to the pavement. Just like to have it for a couple reasons. More power out of corners when i need it, saves on tire tread and a little bit more traction period just wondeirng how u guys feel about putting one on one of our TL's and ne one know how much install would be.

Pointless, plus no one makes one. Why should they? Its a FWD car that is meant for cruising, not canyon carving.

Acutally believe it or not a compnay called Phantom makes one for our cars. But i have decided i can spend 300 dollers in a much better manner.

300 isn't bad at all. But to really get the most out of it, you'd need more modifications such as adjustable suspension, better tires etc etc. Before you know it, you've spent 2000 bucks making your car do corners that a Civic Si could do anyway.

Its just about what your car is made for.

i wouldn't mind doing it for my car.. the other day i got stuck on a snow patch and my front left tire just kept spinning... the front right tire was on solid ground and not moving.. i wouldn't have mind shifting power from the wheels that slip to the wheels that grip at that time.. and i wouldn't mind being able to power out of turns...
