Default ATS LSD

In the not-to-distant future I'm going to be purchasing LSD for my tranny and I want to know of anyone that's had experience with ATS' LSDs. They say they're solely built for racing but don't carry any warranty, like quaife. Has anyone broke one? I can pick up a used unit from some one for cheap, but I need to know if it's gonna be strong. I don't know how badly that guy could have beat it up . I'm wondering if I should just go OBX since they have a lifetime warranty on there's now . Only 4 C-folds

Any comments/suggestions?

The ATS unit is a clutch type LSD that requires special fluid ($60+). The OBX unit is a gear type LSD.

What happens if you don't use there fluid etc. They look pretty solid to me

I would think using a synthetic (lucas oil or something) would be fine. You might have to add some additives but I would think it would work great.

Anything ats that puts out is top notch. I personally would go with a quaiffe, and i love my ktp, but im sure if you decide on the ats you won't be dissapointed.
