Does it say G85 on the sticker anywhere? What year? If its a 05 or 06 and you have recaro seats then you have a limited slip.

Does it have recaro seats? Limited slip came with the g85 package in 05 06 which included recaro seats. In which case, your seats would say recaro on them.

Having or not having an LSD should not stop you from going turbo...

I you pick up your trunk floor to access the spare, look on the left corner and there will be a sticker with a bunch of numbers in alpah and nuerical order. These are your regular production options (RPO)codes. If you see G85 listed, you have a limited slip diff.

to answer your first question...both tires spin, regardless of whether you have a limited slip.

Just post up your VIN and I will check it through GM to tell you if you have one or not. Some other people on here might be able to do it also. Us GM techs have access to that information, we are able to look up the build of the vehicle with the VIN number
