LSD anyone ?

Anyone bought a M235i with an LSD or had one fitted ?

My E91 cried out for one but sadly never got one.

The OEM M Performance one is pretty expensive. I'm thinking about buying/installing a Wavetrac diff. At the end it will cost you about $600+$700-800 deposit (core charge.) After you send them your stock core, you'll get that deposit back.
The cost of the install will be about $300-400.
With the M performance you can only put power to the ground on 1 wheel. With the Wavetrac, you can put power down to both wheels.

You've misunderstood the Wavetrac concept. I think you are referring to the situation where a driven wheel is not in contact with the ground (hitting a curb on a race track or wheel hop for example)

Both the MP LSD and Wavetrac will distribute torque if a rear wheel is lifted as they are plate type devices (the Wavetrac actually is a hybrid to be precise). Only a pure gear type (helical) LSD fails to distribute torque when one wheel is lifted.

Yup - QLSD installed along with Birds B1S springs + ARB's and OEM M4 lower control arms at the front. Sticks to the road like chewed gum on a fur coat with great road manners...
