Hi. As I have been exploring the idea of adding an LSD to my CR-X, I have been trying to get my head around the whole thing.
I found this resource that helps to explain the theory behind the common LSDs available:

What I would like to better understand is the practical effect of a FWD 2 way LSD in the following scenario:
You accelerate heavily up to a corner and then realise that you will have to brake before hitting the apex.
From what I can tell, the brief moment between decceleration and braking will unlock the diff, allowing one wheel to speed up for a moment, then when you brake the diff locks up again causing it to slow down again.
What affect is this going to have on the handling of the car? (If my analysis of the LSD in the above scenario was incorrect, please correct me!)
Furthermore, what difference would changing the LSD to a 1.5 way in this scenario and overall have on a FWD vehicle?
Thanks in advance
