since no one in this thread has answered your question and have just flamed b/c it is obx. I don't know of many people selling OBX lsds besides ebay. I am looking for one also provided that earls tests come back okay. I know dan 93lscivic i think that is his name on here can get them.

Just because one unconfirmed guy who makes 600hp and runs an OBX LSD doesnt mean they are any good. Time will tell.

And is that a lifetime warranty under "race" conditions? Im sure OBX left themselves a way out.

If you have the money to make 600whp and run an OBX LSD, you are some form of retarded. That's like running the most advanced security system through your home and inviting Michael Jackson over for a sleepover with your kid.

hahaha. On a side note, my friend used to sell OBX stuff back in the days and always called it "OBX piece of ****" with everything he sold. I really wouldnt trust their products especially in a 600whp car.

oh really? maybe its due to running out of money after I built the 600 whp car? anyways..mine is still working great!! I have snapped 2 axles with the diff installed..so I guess Iam not being to easy on it..remember OBX does not make this stuff..they just put there name on it..

also for the guy that wants to call people with ***** to try something new and see if it works a retard..how do you think products get there good or bad name? if someone doesnt run it and find out..no one would know!

BTW..car has seen a good 25 to 30 8500 rpm 2 step launchs and 29 psi of boost (hondatas limit)and to top it off is 110% daily driven!

Exactly... this is key. I'm very interested in one of these units myself, just waiting for a few more folks to give it the thumbs up.
