Cusco LSD 183 L2 Limited Slip Differential

If you're looking to upgrade your vehicle's handling and performance, the Cusco LSD 183 L2 Limited Slip Differential is a fantastic choice. Designed specifically for the Subaru Forester XT EJ20T (2004-2008), this differential brings a host of benefits that enhance your driving experience.

Key Features

  • Minimized Drivetrain Power Loss: Perfect for underpowered vehicles, this LSD ensures that more power is effectively transferred to the wheels.
  • Reduced Noise: Enjoy a quieter ride with less chattering noise compared to conventional LSD systems.
  • Consistent Performance: The RS coil springs maintain pressure consistency, providing stable performance over time.
  • Improved Throttle Control: With activation and pressure direction aligned on the same axis, experience a more direct and responsive feel while driving.

How It Works

The Cusco LSD 183 L2 utilizes a unique coil spring design that applies activation pressure in the same direction as the initial torque. This allows for a lower initial torque setting, which results in smoother and quicker engagement of the clutch plates. Even when the LSD mechanism is not activated, the low initial torque enables seamless turns, making your driving experience more enjoyable.

The RS springs are cleverly positioned inside the pressure rings, allowing for customization by adding or subtracting springs according to your preferences. This flexibility lets you tailor the performance to suit your driving style.

Advanced Technology

Each Cusco limited slip differential offers adjustable responsiveness and locking characteristics based on the combination and stacking of clutch plates. The radially cut grooves on the clutch plates facilitate instant oil movement, significantly improving both efficiency and durability. Plus, the polished pressure ring contact surface ensures an even and flat contact with the clutch plates, enhancing overall performance.

The exclusive Cusco Oil Through System promotes excellent oil circulation, ensuring that all necessary areas receive adequate lubrication when paired with Cusco LSD Oil. This feature is critical for maintaining optimal performance and longevity of the differential.
