The Phantom Grip Limited Slip

"PHANTOM GRIP XTREME UNIT The Phantom Grip Limited Slip conversion kits install into your non-lsd differential converting it into a proven and competitive limited slip differential that enhances your traction needs. Phantom Grips 2-way LSD will considerably improve handling in daily driven, street/strip warrior, or full race vehicle. Every Phantom Grip is constructed of only the highest-quality hand selected materials. With over 500,000 miles of vigorous professional performance testing (SCCA, drag, rally, hill climb, ice, rain, etc.), we have been able to fine tune each application through specific heat treating and rockwell testing to achieve maximum performance and reliability. Each Phantom Grip unit is assembled with pressure tested matched sets of progressive-rate springs to achieve equal load distribution to the disc plates, which dramatically enhances reliability and performance. With such a passion for perfection, we at Phantom Grip are confident that when you choose a Phantom Grip unit, you are choosing, by far, the best limited slip conversion kit on the market."

Any 2.2 guys like to try.

I've been receiving quite a few requests for the LSD's again, so I'm doing a GP on the Getrag (F23/F35), 4t40e/4t45e auto, and NVG (internal slave) LSD Inserts.
Doesn't it state that right there.

I have an LSD Insert. It's just not installed in the car yet. It looks like good quality though.

I believe it's from Green Performance. Not 100% though cause I bought it second hand but the guy never installed it.

The Quaife is better, if you can afford it go for it The inserts are almost just as good, much better than stock.

LSD, when one tire looses traction the other wheel will still put power to the pavement.

NON LSD, when one tire slips, it spins, it smokes and you go nowhere.

The average person does not need an LSD. This is why it is usually a factory option on performance related cars, or on trucks and SUVs to assist in towing. The only time I wish I had one is in the winter for driving in snow.
