    Hmm If it does fit, I reckon this is a group buy moment if someone can help me install it.

    I doubt the dealership will just chuck it in during a service without the removal of a kidney.

    2 sizes in the polo, pull your diff out & measure the centre of the sphere before ordering!

    Guy, was there a measurable and noticable improvement when you installed the LSD?

    ...so all we need to do is 'pull the diff out and measure the centre' ...far canal lol

    Thumbs up

    LSD (or really its not an LSD, but a TBD : Torque biasing differential - very different to how an LSD behaves).

    Anyway - its one of the biggest single improvements to the Polo - not so much in launching or drag racing starts, but through corner speed and the ablity to keep the power down is improved by zillions of a percent!

    Anybody who gets to the race track should see a couple of seconds off their lap time.

    You do have to adjust driving style (re learn), but once you get the hang of it - FWD is an awesome experience on the track
