And definitely one of the best addition to help power transfer to the ground! PLUS it doesn't require expensive fluid so that keeps the maintenance cost lower.

Can I say the LSD is like a mechanical traction control which helps u to accelerate but at the same time not slowing down your wheels?

I am picking up a LSD from them with my next paycheck.

So when I replace the clutch and flywheel, I will do this all at once.

Try to get the Mfactory 4.7final gear set installed at the same time while u install the LSD. Going uphill & carrying passenger with my car isn't painful ANYMORE! Especially if some of u who's got catback or even header back exhaust & feels like the 5th gear became useless in city, the bigger final gear will definitely help on getting response back too.

I was thinking about getting the final gear, but I dunno. I travel about 100 miles a day. mostly highway, so it might kick my ass if I get that. Plus I am gonna boost this winter.

I see. I did 3 tanks of gas on my car already after everything installed. So far the gas mileage is the same if not better. I just didn't have to stomp on the throttle anymore going around town & on the way to & from work merging on to highway.

what are your cruising RPM's?

edit: i did the math not bad... about 5mph difference at 3grand

stock 3k = 64mph

4.7 3k = 59mph

It was designed for the L15A, but should fit the L13A as well (need to confirm)
