Is the phantom grip lsd any good for my si. i'm kinda on a budget build up and dont wanna be forking out 7-800 buck for lsd...

 

phantom grip = random slip; fork out the cash and get the real thing, email me if you want details on why I would NOT reccomend the phantom grip.

 

yeah phantom slip isn't even a real lsd. it's some cheap contraption. get the real thing or don't get anything.

 

The design itself is not bad, just the parts. If the shims behind the side gears were of better metal or roller bearings and there was a small friction disc between the side gears and the PG pieces, it would work alot better. But then it would be called a OPM diff. But they now want about $650 to mod a stock diff. At that price a Kaaz looks good. The OPM diff is proven, as about any decent ITA CRX/Civic. They will mention OPM and Houseman Autosports.

Alsoit puts load on places the factory differential was never supposed to have load or wear; when it wears it also scatters metal fragments/shavings around inside the transmission, which create wear & potential long term damage.
