#6
I have the TRD LSD with the stock gearing.
PROS
* Greatly reduces the Traction control kicking in since power is going to both wheels instead of only one
* Better grip and acceleration out of the corners
* And again Power to BOTH rear wheels
CONS
* Can NOT take VSC off in the rain, sleet, or snow OR you will be doing 180's, once if spins out, thats it!
* price for unit
* price for install
Hope that helps

LSD= Limited Slip Differential
The GS stock doesn't have a true LSD, it has an open differential. So power doesn't go to both wheels, only one, which is why power breaking and hammering the accelerator will not allow one to leave 2 patches of rubber on the road. I am not a technical genius on automobiles, but using the search engine will bring up a lot of info as the LSD has been discussed in detail a few times. I'm happy with my TRD LSD but I agree with LexCiting on it being an expensive mod, but worth it in the end IMO.

I have the RMM 3.76 LSD and love it . It is the way the car should have been from the factory. If you don't have one you need to get one. Hammering it around corners is way fun and the car really moves out.
