Lsd No Good ?

i was told LSD is not really a good thing for a front wheel drive car unless u plane to drag race with it. its has a much better use on a rear wheel car rather then front wheel now i dont know if this is true or not what do you guys think. I was also told that if you have LSD it does not do well when turing and stuff like that what do you guys think?

I think whoever told you that doesnt understand the difference between a proper RWD LSD and a FWD LSD.

A FWD LSD is only "1-way", where it only couples on acceleration, NOT on deceleration, which would cause the car to understeer unmercifully during cornering.

A RWD LSD will couple on both acceleration and deceleration to an extent, which is what is desired with a RWD LSD.

So basically your friend doesnt know what he or she is talking about.
