JDM Evo 8 with ACD Cusco LSD review

I have a full time road race JDM Evo 8 with 680 HP, it is equipped with ACD, Cusco 1.5 way rear LSD and I would like to install a Cusco 1 way RS front LSD. Does anybody in the autocross or road racing world have any experience with this? I may be in the wrong aria asking this question, if I am please direct me to the right forum please, thanks in advance. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

No idea if this is the right forum, either, but in the States, a helical front diff (e.g., Quaife QDH12B) is more popular than a 1-way for autocrossing an Evo 8, but you need the suspension to keep the inside front down for this to work. How big a rear swaybar do you have?

The front sway bar is a stock JDM 24 mm and the rear is from White Line 24 mm and the car handles pretty decent right now but still want more.

Ah. I bow out, then. You are clearly at the level of needing more hands-on information than I can provide. Good luck. My only contribution is to suggest that you ask about the Quaife, as well as the Cusco, as those are both used in the States.
