cheap LSD??

hi everybody... does any one know anything http://www.phantomgrip.com ?? they are offering me a LSD solution for $499, its some parts you put in you differential to make it LSD locking up to 60%, i feel its a good deal, actually it looks like the system kleemann has the rectangular things with springs... i am trying also to install a 3.07 diff for better streetlight racing lol still sourcing a 00+ EGS unit because the pre 00 wont have the software for tiptronic...

What's up with these LSD's? are they only for the 430's and 55's?

Can someone please let me know how they work with our cars? I know what they do, but if someone can give me a little 411 on how with work on our CLK's that'd be great. Thanks.

i was looking into these they are not LSD's in any way. what they do is install to pads with springs that slide into the rear housing. by placing friction onto the two haves it cause the same reaction as an LSD but with more wear on the parts.

here is a link to t C AMG forum
