Yeah if you are not going to be lifting wheels off the ground in turn 4, the Giken is overkill. If you just want a LSD to have and LSD, then I am sure there is a lower price point. Quaife is known for making no BS stuff, I would buy from them in a heartbeat.

What is interesting is the way a LSD actually works. Did you know the whole thing is designed around what is essentially a big solid oil booger? It was explained to me by the same guy that was telling me why he uses the Giken. The whole "clutch" mechanism is like this big ball of oil-snot-jello thing.

In addition, if you burn the booger snot jello clutch out, the whole thing is f-ed. When you change the LSD oil, it doesn't really affect the booger snot ball, if that thing gets too hot, it's done.
