LSD Transmissions...
With the stock b18c JDM tranny I hear they are only good up to 350WHP... is this true?
Who makes good aftermarket LSD tranny parts? I want to beef it up a little bit but it's also a daily driver. I need to be able to handle turbo eventually... 12PSI, hopefully 300WHP... I dont want to burn it out with the turbo. But, at the same time I need to drive this everyday.
Are there really any advantages in the LSD tranny? Any Horsepower loss?? I just basically need the 4-1-1 :fawk:
Thanks yall.

Quaife makes a very nice aftermarket lsd and it has a lifetime warranty. The oem lsd is good for more than 350whp.
lsd's help with traction, they prevent one tire fires.

are the LSD tranny components the same? clutch, flywheel, pressure plate?
and can you use normal components in them? or do you need to buy a whole aftermarket tranny?

Everything is the same except for the differential.
I don't know of anyone that makes stronger guts for our transaxles, probably because 99.9% of people running a B18C are never going to overpower it anyway.

so i should just use my stock LSD tranny?
or is it worth it to get a new clutch/flywheel?
and if i do... i just buy a normal clutch/flywheel for a 1.8L 94-01 b18c?
