You know, it's more than just being able to pull off impressive drifting, a good lsd gives you more confidence in your car. It makes it more controllable past the limit. Having more faith in your car makes you a faster driver. The first time you take it on the track, you probly won't like it, but as you learn what makes a CLSD happy, you'll become a smoother driver and will have controllable oversteer on demand.
There's a reason these aftermarket diffs are expensive, because they're that good. Just bite the bullet and get one, I've never seen anybody regret it.
They really aren't that hard to live with for a daily driver. As long as I keep the fluid changes frequent, and take off in a turn like a civilized person, it's not too abusive.
Tomei tech trax is generally regarded as the smoothest, followed by Cusco RS, the rest are similar in design and similar in operation.
