Default OEM LSD or KAZZ LSD?

I ordered a SIRII w/LSD motor from Steve @ hmotorsonline.com. It arrived a week and a half ago but the shipping company must have dropped the motor off of the truck. The intake manifold was shattered and ripped out of the block and the tranny housing was cracked. He is sending me another swap but gave me a choice.
My question is... he offered me a SIRII motor w/KAZZ LSD for the same price as the motor with OEM LSD. What would you choose for an everyday driver?

What benefits will I have with the KAZZ vs OEM LSD? What are the drawbacks? I heard they click alot while cornering.

My GSR diff. clicks when I turn right... :dunno:

I'd say KAAZ (not KAZZ - http://www.kaazusa.com/) is better, but I don't have any experience with LSDs (yet).

Kaaz, unlike quaife, works in the dirt or in the air.... just in case you feel like rallying:naughty:

Kaaz's are supposed to be pretty good diffs, I'd go with that one. You should look at that kaaz link ^^^ and see if they have any kind of warranty too... I know quaife has a lifetime warranty.

You should also ask hmotors how long the diff has been in the transmission, or if they installed it themselves or whatever.
