me and Gall are now running 3.64lsd's well mine is on my 325i which im trying to save but it will go on the 335i

jaffro has a lsd being rebuilt now but i cant remember the ratio???

the LSD does help with the skidding


be good if we could get lots of these down to the pod, we could have a FI section and a m30 section
