well if you really wanna read this pakman then go on ahead!

LSD senses how much grip each tire is getting. When it senses one wheel is losing grip, it takes away some power from it and gives power to the one that is going to have more grip so it can put the power to better use. This is what keeps you from sliding and powers you through corners better!

In easy terms, when changing the gear ratio, you are adjusting the overall acceleration of the car.

This set will allow the car to have a higher gear ratio thus a higher rate of acceleration.

I think you're misunderstood what i was looking at. I'm looking at changing the gear ratio in the differential. Not adding a LSD.

No it does not. But it does increase your overall acceleration which will feel like you have a lil more power. I think for the price it's better than adding an engine mods that only produce 2 - 5 hp.

you never played GT3 or GT4 huh!

you know how a car has to shift gears at a certain point? he's making that point to shift higher between certain gears so it feels like he's getting more power. it's kinda just the big power for a longer period of time. i think...
