Default H22 owners w/phantom grip LSD

If any of you have one, is it worth it to buy the LSD? I am in the process of finishing my motor and was wondering if I should go that route before I put the tranny in.

if you are going to be racing it, then yes??? otherwise not really since the Quaife alone is $800, plus probably $300-400 for install and it needs to be done by someone who knows what they are doing.

If you're going to go thru the trouble to put an LSD in your transmission, I'd spend the money and get a real LSD. You can search on Honda-Tech for tons of examples as to why Phantom Grip shouldn't be used on the track...

racing in a straight line or corners such as autox. I neve quite understood the benefits of LSD i know it alows for a more even power distribution but I think it makes turning more dificult.
