Are you saying put an extra rearend in the trunk? J/k. More junk in the trunk is what you need.

I thought the cars already had a LSD in them, or is that just for V8's?

not sure of how much weight.. Luckily in texas i dont have to deal with snow, and rain isnt usually bad enough to put more weight in the trunk (unless i want it to be, lol).

Most people I know put in a few 50lb bags of mulch or something like that. I wouldn't want to put mulch in though, just because normally it is supposed to smell a little funky. But put something similiar in. Maybe an equivelent of about 100-200 lbs.

I live in Texas, and have to deal with it on RARE occasions. You must live down south.

The V6s w/Y87 package had limited slips, but the rest didn't.
