You definitely need an LSD, you will get better response from the tires and you will feel the difference whenever you floor it out of a roundabout!!

I'm running Michelin PS1s and I'm really happy with them as well...but they're starting to fade away, got to change them!

Your engine has plenty of potential, too bad that Merc detuned them...You can open her up and make her rip off the road!

Get yourself some exhausts components, filters and all...and slam her with an ECU!
Done that, ecu, longtube headers, filters, xpipe, 2ndary sport cars, primary cats delete.

I've heard a lot about Digi-Tec and they seem like an amazing upgrade.. how much have you gained from stock form with all the upgrades you have put on??

I just spent some time going over all your modifications. Everything is put together nicely. A LSD will be a great to put all that power down on the ground. Great job, Mo!

I've been thinking of getting an LSD( not sure) its more a track thing., but maybe not now I have a lot of things to cover tyres, alcantara roof and maybe servicing. So one step at a time

The new part which I hopefully can get will complement the interior nicely with a touch of red.

Notice the gear lever, my interior is way better

They make manual transmission AMG cars?

Thats not an AMG car, i was just using the interior as reference. The AMG SLK doesnt come in manual gearbox, would be cool to have a manual though.

Okay sent a pm to a sponsor on the SLK forums, Quafie's LSD goes for 1,000 bucks. Strong possibility I'm getting one now, its reasonable.
