Lsd

Is it true that the MSP LSD for manual trannies only? Will it work on a protege sedan with an auto tranny? If so, where can I go to get one and how much would I be looking to spend?

But the LSD by Quaife is like a butt-load of money. There has to be some other one available. I don't want to do all these mods and spin my wheels because of no availble LSD to keep my wheels to the pavement. If the Quaife is the only one available, where can I get the LSD at a cheaper price besides Corksport.com?

Sorry bout the mistake there. I must of read right over the F-series tranny thing. I was toying with the idea of doing the swap, but Ive heard its a lot of work to do. Because of my finances, I don't envision the swap getting done. So if no LSD is available for the 3rd Gen Pro with auto tranny, what option (if any) do I have for an LSD?

I heard its best to get an LSD if you plan on getting a turbo. I hope to have one in the near future so I figure in order to keep my wheels glued to the pavement and not sliding out or hydroplaning, then an LSD would be a wise investment.
