Yeah, i have a H22 one, still running w/o boost, the unit works fine. Installing the LSD was not that difficult, only thing different to the B-series trannie is the bearings, determaning wich shim to use prooved to be the most difficult thing. But yeah, i like it and dont regret buying one. Lets see how well it holds under boost..
EDM 1999 accord Built H22 using F20 Tranny
8:1 Wiseco, Eagle rods, T3/T4 etc.. </TD></TR></TABLE>
I also recently bought an OBX LSD. It has been installed. I will see how it handles under boost also. The turbo is currently being installed.

I am also curious of the shimming issues people are having. Any pics of where you are talking about for when I put mine in and some pics of the oil control ring people are using would be a big help also.

Re: (siblues)
ZC Tranny, Stock @11psi. Held Great. Didn;t Car about shimming it properly as the tranny already was on it's last leg.
Now Built ZC, Shooting for 350whp+ off nitrous, obviously more with. We'll See. Should be fine, never let me down.
Also Tossing one into a B16 tranny with no fears as it has never given sorrows,

Re: (.EnzoSpeed)
I got my OBX in the mail a couple of weeks ago. Mine arrived in a perfect package, no stripped bolts, thing looks solid. For $375 looks like a damn good choice to me.

Tested one of the older OBX LSD's for a while. Put about 10,000 miles on it. 7000RPM launches, 342whp, etc. Going to pull the transmission to put another clutch in. Will see how the Gator axles come out

Re: (alpha)
I've also been looking into the OBX LSD over the more expensive Quaife units. If there is one thing OBX is good for is coping other brands product! I agree the assembly of these units are questionable at the best of times, but if you're comfortable with taking one apart and making sure everything is intact then why not buy one at less than half the price of the other guys. There are many 300+WHP cars running these units with great success so they can't be that poorly made.
