An LSD and transmission combo from a wrecker will probably be your best bet. I've seen the combinations for around $800 for the SS/SC's, but you'll probably want something a bit closer to your model year add a hundred bucks or so I would imagine.

Unless your confident you can install your own LSD onto your transmission, this would probably be the cheapest option since you'd just have to swap the whole transmission right out.
