Depends on the management that your planning on running but some can have a form of launch control or if not run a 2 stage map.

A LSD will help anyway.

From the threads I have seen £600 and up I believe plus the labour in stripping the box and fitting it.

according to vw the mk3 16v came with traction control (it works off the abs by applying the brake to the spinning wheel)

A-Class Mercs have the same. Horrible. Slows the car down off the line and majes the car worse in snow.

Where all my moneys went.
