Wow sorry I haven't responded to this thread in a long time....
I am still enjoying this clutch and LSD. Won my class racing this season and have also done plenty of track days on the combo - no issues.
I never found anyone locally with the Southbend silent, I stopped looking after the one guy I knew sold his.... I barely notice it anymore, you get used to the change of sound.
I chose this LSD because it was on sale and I had heard good things about from others on various other car forums
Your LSD review has me really considering one. What kind of tires did you run with the LSD? I used Nitto NT-01s, 225/40/17 last summer but still had trouble putting the power down comming out of certain corners. This summer, I plan on stepping up to Hoosier 245/40/17 or BFG R1s 235/40/17. With tires that sticky, I am wondering whether a mechanical LSD will make a significant difference over the XDS. In NASA TT, an LSD would cost me 3 pts and I could use those points on some other things (e.g., BBK 2pts or XB brace 3 pts). Your thoughts?

Huge difference between mechanical LSD and XDS, you will be able to put the power down much sooner. I found on the track XDS is too easily overwhelmed.
Last season I ran NT-01s (same size as you) and then moved to running R888s 235-45-17. I haven't tried anything with more grip yet.
To me out of BBK, XB brace and LSD - LSD is a no brainer.
how much did they quote you for both installed? i spoke to the main aftermarket vw shop and they said 570 just for the clutch, and for an lsd they'd have to send it out to another shop. i was kind of thinking of just going to a transmission specialist and seeing what kind of deal they could offer

that is an absolute steal, make sure USP sends you the new Transmission seal/cap. At the same time make sure you replace the throw out bearing, TRUST ME on this, it's insurance.

That's nuts! He is aware that the ring gear will have to drilled and tapped to install on the diff right?

Way ahead of you on that, I'm all about the details (The Devil is in the Details) Yup definetly a good deal.:thumbsup:
Yes he is aware that you have to drill out the ring gear rivets. Might see about getting a new ring gear just to save time, He can get for me at his cost.
