K. Bottom line is this....my friend has a 06 SS/SC just like mine except red and no G85. We both have CAI, Exhaust and Stage three. Mine is lowered his is not. We have ran many many times. We have tested this theory of LSD vs. Not. Verdict is simple. We lauch at the same RPM's and I win every time and every time I hook up sooner than he does. So try and tell me that has nothing to do with the added traction that the G85 gives you..................

Just change your seat option to ebony with ebony inserts...hit continue and you shall see the G85 package selection appear.

I have the comp. package on my RL and i do notice the diff. especially in tight turns and weather. I dont feel it in regular driving. But I can launch higher than a non comp package RL.

Wasn't that Sport Compact Car's 240 project with an SR20 swap? I thought I was the only one that remembered that article...ha ha...I love reading that magazine!
