Is anyone talking to OBX about them making some LSD's for our 2.2L's or 2.4L's now with the turbo's and tunning for the 2.4L you would think it would be a great add on

All Cobalts EXCEPT SS/SC, the SS/SC does NOT have a Getrag tranny, we run an FGP Tranny.

There is a member who is buying the LSD from them who has a ss s/c non g85....they said it would work. So what is all in the install?
1. how many estimated hours
2. should i go with a lighten flywheel too since i believe i am going to be in the tranny anyway
3. think its worth it at 150.00?
4. do you think i will need tunning

You and me both buddy, i am trying to clearly understand it. What i got was that LSD will not give full power to the inside tire when turning while the insert will give more then the actual LSD, but as soon as you accel the insert will give full power to both wheels. Point is that in auto-x LSD is WAY better but normal driving and track use the insert should be fine.

From the background checks its good quality, BUT what is not being answered is time to install i was quoted around 600.00 for it to go in if i can work it down to be like 400.00 i might jump on it and do a lighten flywheel at the same time
