So I found the color combo I like with possibly a rare color combo (grey/tan with deviating black) but it doesn't have LSD. I've researched various threads on RL and 6spd and surmise the diff is around 1500 for Quaife and 2500 Guards.

Just trying to decide whether to wait or buy and install.

LSD is great. Had it from new on my 993, replaced the factory unit at 80K with a Guards and drove it to 161K before I sold it.

I would jump on the color combo if all else checks out, drive it a few K miles, and then decide if you really want LSD for the 90% of driving you do.

The TT already has so many good handling aids that, except for frequent track and extremely spirited canyon carving, it probably meets your needs already.

Overrated for a pure road car, like Terry said if the car is calling you go for it !
I have it but still would have bought the car if it hadn't.

Get the LSD from the GT3-RS and install in the turbo. I had the folks at TPC Racing, obtain and install one for my 07 turbo and I absolutely love it.

I do love a trackday which is why LSD is important to me. I like 512bb's idea too!

Nick Wong

Good way to go. Also, get it rebuilt with Guard internals before installing. OE clutch packs have notoriously weak preloads.

tiptronics cant get LSD?

Terry Adams

Correct, I think.

It was not on the option list when I ordered my car.

Correct Tip has no LSD.

Go with Guards for LSD. Matt from Guards is on these forums too.

They have a nice meteor gray 2009 turbo at RPM, 75k, 19k miles, seems like a good car.

Saw that one. Gray interior is a deal killer, in my book.

Ha. I feel the same about grey interior.

aa909

me too. could be the nicest car, perfect in every other way but if the interior is light gray I walk away. For some inexplicable reason a light gray interior makes me feel like I'm in a rental car. just personal preference, no offense to gray leather seat enthusiasts

Only time I've been semi ok with a light gray interior is if it has thick black contrast stitching to break up the look a little.

ditto mine was custom by fairfield county motorsports. cost 8k installed. worth every penny. totally noticing the difference around turns.
