Default LSD for 5th Gen Vti

OK, I know I only post at Christmas and public holidays, but I have a question.

Is there an LSD available for 5th gen? Are there different kinds? What's the best and how easy are they to fit.

I'm sick of lifting a wheel and losing traction coming out of a curve.

Quaife makes one for the 5th gen that is one of the best out there.

All FWD cars exhibit heavy lifting of the inside wheel in the curve, which an open differential will drive the most power to. My Quaife was the best modification I've ever done on my car... power always goes to the wheel with the most grip!

ohh I thought you guys were talking about the rear inside wheel - like you see a GTI pick up a wheel.

Well, a lot of Accords or any FWD cars for that matter will pull the "pissing dog" as well. I used to have a photo of my Accord doing it a few years ago...

Well, I have a pretty easy setup to copy, but I made the factory bar "stiffer" by making it semi-adjustable.
