Nothing needs to be changed aside from the initial installation of the LSD.

Some older B16A computers are 180km/h limited, that's 112mph. The computer needs to be chipped or replaced to eliminate the limiter.

Auto B16A's exist, but are rare.

lsd tranny compaired to stock tranny is like night and day...
with lsd tranny u get a a power ratio 65/45 65% of power to one wheel 45% to other
with stock tranny i believe the power ratio is somewhere along the lines of 90/10
in turn meaning less wheel slip with LSD becuse of the closer power distribution along the axles and much better launch power for the more powerful cars..
