maybe, but i dont wana pull the converter out and send it to a company just to have them say, o we cant put a stall in this, or quote so high its not worth it, but a 25-3000 stall in the box would make it haul BUTT!!!

too bad OBX doesn't make LSD for the older xb....
coz i saw OBX LSD for new xb and tc....
and they aren't that expensive (around $400-500)

the KAAZ is a little pricy....

so... no one knows if there an alternative for LSD?

you'd want top of the line parts for the tranny anyways don't want things breaking down on you when you launch at the quarter mile track or while auto crossing...

I've got one in my box. The material and workmanship used in making this is of very high quality. The handling is great...especially when launching.

i installed it myself. you need the shop manual because u have to take apart the gear box. i also recommend ordering up a new set of bearings from the dealer. you have to follow the OEM instructions!!!!!!!!!!!! From torque specs to thread sealant to gasket sealing.... I live in chicago and I can say that it has helped with winter driving and has eliminated some but not all of the wheel hop. It is worth the money! but it will cost $$$ in labor if you have a shop install it.

have torque damper. poly-urethaned my motor mounts and LSD and still have some wheel hop. Rims are a bit on the heavy side and running Falken Azenis RT Summer tires plus a clutchmasters and turbo......uhh, yeah FWD aint the most ideal setup
