I assume that since this will be using the ASB sensors, it will be quicker than a mechanical LSD. So, unless there is a way to defeat the "new electronic LSD" via some ECU tampering, I doubt that a real locking diff will do much.
Yes, but it doesn't transfer torque like an LSD.
Even though the wheel dosn't spin, you're wasting power & wearing your rear brake.
