Thoughts?

I'm debating what is more important right now, getting a Quaffie LSD or pitching for the stage 2 gm kit.

I know most people will say stage 2, but honestly i would like a bit more grip in the corners, a bit more control off the line, and we get some nasty winters here so 2 wheels spinning will be nicer than just 1

I'm thinking quaffie... Anybody have any experiences w/ this lsd?

If you say stage 2, what would be your reasoning why?

Well that is the LSD that comes with the Balts with the G85 package, so there are a lot of us on here with them....Are you planning on installing it yourself? I would think you would be better off just selling your car and buying a Balt with the G85 package.

I drive a non LSD ss/sc. its winter driven. in all my driving ive never once felt that an LSD would be worth the cost.

It depends what you do, how you drive...etc.
I dont high speed corner.....and I dont autoX. so IMO an LSD, while nice....is not worth the $$ to me.

Is this post real? Like really, is this a serious answer? Yes im going to flip my 06 cobalt ss/sc for a cobalt ss/sc w/ g85 so i can have seats that are a bit more snug and a lsd Sounds like a forumla on how to loose money...

yes it is

i bought steelies with kumho kw-19's for the winter and while it was nice enough, a bit more grip/pull would of been nice.

Im just curious cause i hate exitting a corner, punching it, and feeling the wheelin spin, moreso on right turns then left...

You're kidding, right?
It's not that hard to install LSD.

Installing the Quaife was a 7 hour job for GM techs and that was without the re and re.
