So, my car came with open diff and I added it after the fact

Was/Am using Hakka R2's and had same weight in the trunk

The difference after the addition of LSD is profound.....when I say this, I'm reflecting on how much better it performs on going UP the "Cliff" of a hill I live on in snow.
Oh it's better no doubt - although the car is more than fine in the snow without as long as it's also equipped with a driver with some common sense.
