Is it just for cornering or does it apply for all kinds of driving situations?

Does this affect my final drive ratio? I want the number to be higher / my RPM to be higher per MPH so the car gets alot more responsive. I have no use for top speed only acceleration.

Thanks!
In an open differential if one wheel loses traction more power is fed to that wheel. A limited-slip feeds power to the wheel with traction. An LSD helps acceleration off the line and generally lets you get on the power sooner coming out of a corner. The M Performance diff has the same gear ratio as the OEM open diff.
