Expect an LSD shortly from us. We are planning to do that on our turbo 2.4 liter GTS. Meantime we just have to wait for the right time. Finish turbo first. LSD will be a serioud must for anyone looking for low 1/4 mile ETs . Turbo guys can expect to spin tires well into 2nd gear without one and prolly into 3rd.

my guess would be that they are making it for the MT…
every time i go on a car site and select the ‘build your own’ option… the LSD (if offered) is only available with MT transmissions…
soooo
but, as long as it is compatible with my 08 MT DE, i’ll be a happy camper.
(oh and affordable would be nice too…hahaha)

i remember reading some where that the lancers use the scoin tc manual trans and u can use the trd lsd in it
hears the artical (well a piece of it)
GT Channel: You built a Lancer for Gymkhana USA. Tell us about it.
Mitsubishi: I decided to work with the base model of the vehicle to show that the entire Lancer line up is performance capable. Furthermore, the Lancer De (base mode) is lighter than the other trim levels, so that was a benefit we kept in mind as well. Then I engaged Road Race engineering to help me develop as many new parts as possible. I found that the transmission was sourced from the OEM as a scion TC; so a LSD was sourced from Quaiffe, and bearings were ordered from Toyota parts department-- this was the first modification we went for but it is being complete as we speak post round 1 of gymkhana.

Not quite what I said. TC is different from LSD - they perform different tasks. It was an example I was trying to make, but it ended up making no sense.

You should not have bought the CVT then. Most companies do not bother making non-MT LSDs. RRM's 02-06 LSD is manual only. Do you really think they're going to make a CVT LSD, especially given the complicated nature of it?
Can we even install it? The CVT is a non-serviceable transmission. Who knows if it's even possible to crack the housing open without screwing everything up?

A torque converter is not an LSD. The torque converter takes the place of the clutch on an auto. And an auto transmission will never have an LSD nor will a manual transmission. They do not have a differential in them. Now an auto tansaxle or a manual transaxle can both have a lsd.
