It holds up great! Feels about like any other S54 in a straight line but turns more aggressively into corners when I blip the throttle. Reverse, it cuts around a lot quicker than the open diff. And when I'm at WOT in first or second, I'll definitely know if I don't have the wheels pointed perfectly straight. It will take off whichever direction the wheels are pointed, much less forgiving than the open diff. I haven't gotten to go for a good spirited drive with it yet, so this is just what I've gotten from a few slightly aggressive short drives.

If you order the MR-S LSD from eBay and overhaul the transmission yourself, I suspect you'll be more than satisfied with your investment. I haven't put a lot of miles in with mine yet but I already don't want another open diff S54.

Per Manny,

and the LSD works fantasticly.
i love the way it allows power delievery from mid corner to exit, where the car normally wants to just push out the LSD really helps pull the car out of the corner straight.
