Pardon my noob question, What is the benefit of this mod?? Will this increase HP? Increase MPG? Better Aerodynamics? Lower unspung weight? Better handling? What is it??
I gained 313 hp, dropped to 2 mpg, undercar aerodynamic improved as well as unsprung weight, made handling much worse as I can't turn now, can just go straight.
Are you serious? Can you please elaborate more why and how so??

LSD doesn't increase hp in no way....FsportIS I think he joking to your answer.
I can see it as a joke. Please take it easy and don't turn this into a flame war or a joke.
Anyways, can someone sum up the benefits of this mod?
no more wheel hopping, the car feels smoother going through corners at a quicker speed (already taken it up 9 and 35 a bunch of times and fully utilized the lsd without having the rear end kick out lmao), oh and you'll spin easier with trac control off on wet ground
Thanks. So it makes it more fun to drive with some more oversteering. Sound fun...
How much is the part and labor are we talking about here?

Yeah I skid a lot more in the mountains after I got my differential installed, but it was mostly because I was running on basically bald tires haha. it depends on where/who you get your differential from and like what redspencer said, depends on which shop you bring it to.
Wow this seems like an expensive mod... I wish I can test drive the IS with this mod to see how fun it is lol. Anyone in Southern CA have this mod done?
