Default Cusco LSD

I've read a couple hundred different threads on LSDs and the "adjustability" of the Cusco to try the 1, 1.5, 2 way in the car really interests me. My two questions are has anyone used this to try all three set ups in their cars to find what works best for them? And how is the rebuild parts availability in the states? Any input from RR experience would be greatly appreciated.

TIA

I am using the MFactory plate diff . It is very similar to the Cusco. I have tried the 1 way and 1.5 way. I prefer the one way for FF cars. I like the feeling of an "open " diff upon lift. Additionally I use the 45 degree ramp angle and the clutch packs adjusted to 60% lockup. At 80% lockup i had too much steering wheel into the turns. Also I vary my usage of friction modifier. I dont use it in most applications. What engine trans are you using? what is the majority of your driving?

The car and SCCA STU (ex WC) Civic. It currently has a B20 (200 whp) with ITR gearbox w/ OE LSD. This past weekend at Mid-Ohio I was getting wheel spin over the top of 8 and 11, whenever the car get a bit light. I hadn't seen that Mfactory has a new LSD. I'm going to look into that for sure.
