The Moto-East FF kit has been rock solid for me on track and was pretty easy to install considering the lines and fittings all came pre-assembled, there's an optional plug and play ECU harness, and the wire crimps are very high quality. Also detailed instructions with plenty of pictures made the install a couple hours by myself, taking my time.

The Moto-East kit features quick disconnect lines so it's actually pretty easy to remove those. Depressurize the system, pop the lines off with a quick disconnect tool, and you can reconnect the stock line just as easily as you removed it. The fuel line assembly is secured to the brake lines with zip ties and easily goes in and out as one unit. The ECA gauge can be easily zip tied out of sight in the cabin. If you get the plug and play ECU harness then you may be able to just leave that in and flash back to a stock tune file (assuming you've got regular gas in the tank) and proceed to have your warranty work done. Removing all the wiring isn't a huge deal if you'd rather not risk the dealer finding it, but you'll have to cut your wire crimps for the ECA and redo those when you re-install.

I was wondering though - what kind of diff fluid are you guys using? Still stock?

I am unsure if its entirely necessary to change out the diff factory fill. I've seen nasty pics of the drain plug, but do you guys use something other than OEM?

We use Motul Gear300LS

Metal paste on the magnetic drain plug is normal.

Why are you running the LS in a Torsen without clutch packs?
I meant to ask before.

The fluid feels slightly different.... it's hard to quantify.

So, we have the OS Giken LSD in the car, and it's obviously working, but I want to really be pushing it to test conclusively.

Just waiting for the latest revalve on our SRCs to get back to us now...

I just sold my PS4 to someone claims to be working/affiliated with OSG... He even said to ask him if I needed their LSD. I'd have said yes, but it wasn't free. LOL
