Charlie28 Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 Well I'm planning on running 300bhp + but don't have an LSD box at the moment. Would this effect my result on a dyno?Cheers,Charlie Quote
Jim* Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 Yes it will be a waste of time and they probably won't be able to map it because of a stupid amount of wheelspin. You can spin them in 4th at 230bhp with no diff so with 300 it will be completely pointless.Don't waste your money on going 300bhp If you don't have the mods to even nearly put the power down Quote
Socks Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 Hub Dyno youd be able too.... but yeh, LSD before going over 280bhp! Quote
Charlie28 Posted October 21, 2014 Author Posted October 21, 2014 Ok lads! Still got some money in the pot so i'll have to try and find someone selling an LSD box! Cheers,Charlie! Quote
Azz Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 I have 428bhp with no lsd and had no issues on the dyno If done correctly Quote
Charlie28 Posted October 21, 2014 Author Posted October 21, 2014 I ran 280bhp on my megane sport before this and that didn't have an LSD either. But i suppose its a good idea to get myself one anyway! Quote
Phil Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 I ran 280bhp on my megane sport before this and that didn't have an LSD either. But i suppose its a good idea to get myself one anyway! You ill never compare those two cars again after you get your car up and running at 300HP lol Phil Quote
Charlie28 Posted October 21, 2014 Author Posted October 21, 2014 You ill never compare those two cars again after you get your car up and running at 300HP lol Phil Ha! I hated the car anyway! Glanza feels faster at 200bhp! Quote
Jim* Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 Ha! I hated the car anyway! Glanza feels faster at 200bhp!That's because it is! Quote
Charlie28 Posted October 21, 2014 Author Posted October 21, 2014 That's because it is! Ha! True! Quote
ROTABOOST Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Get a Quaife . I'm only running 240hp and I had the open diff, was chocolate teapot! Put a Quaife diff in and it's a different car, best mod I've done Quote
Gainzy Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 All diffs must be good I always wanted a TRD one, anything over 220 really needs lsd attention imo, you an have 1000 bhp but it's how you get there that matters I reckon 250/270 is the magic numbers not saying that 400 wouldn't be madness on an open road though lol Quote
MARC MOSS Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Running 300 bhp and an open diff is stupid ...Even under 200bhp you can't drive one properly without an lsd, as above it will be one of the better purchases you make on your road to high power..What brake setup will you be using alongside all this power? Quote
morgey Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Agree with Marc, only running 180 and the extra confidence it gives you with cornering is by far the most noticable of any handling mod. Dread to think what some of these other high powered machines must be like Quote
MARC MOSS Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 They're just number people man that's all, all that power without an lsd is pointless unless you like showing your mates wheel spins Quote
Charlie28 Posted October 24, 2014 Author Posted October 24, 2014 They're just number people man that's all, all that power without an lsd is pointless unless you like showing your mates wheel spins Just thought i'd ask! Looks like i'll have to buy Rbz box off him then! Cheers Lads Quote
RichWillmore Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Im running over 300 and the TRD Diff is just awesome. You'll be suprised how much it improves the drive ... Wouldnt own a starlet of anypower without one now. Quote
robwob88 Posted November 27, 2014 Posted November 27, 2014 Any car with any power will always benefit from a LSD. They completely change that characteristics of the car. I'm running around the 220 mark with a cusco diff. Best thing I've ever bought. Quote
