I have decided to stick with my order for an Exige S and not upgrade to the Cup.

I plan to increase the power of my car (if you know what i mean ) so the question is do i get the LSD option. Does the car need it and will it upset the handling? I really do not want to be spinning the inside rear wheel out of hairpins on track or in the mountains, especially in the wet, but at the same time i do not want a car that understeers.

I have ordered an Exige S with sports and super sports pack.

Thanks for your thoughts......Ian

Firstly congrats very nice choice.

I have a 111R and do not feel the need for LSD with the yokohama on the dry.
With your power, I would take the LSD, if it is slightly wet or on the white line you will benefit from it. Maybe you can limit the understeer with the adjustable suspension. I believe the benefit are greater than the small disavantage
Enjoy

Which LSD are you going to go for ? the factory fitted one or the adjustable Lotus Sport version ?

I have asked for the factory fitted one on the Lotus options list not the motorsport one. I talked to Russel Gibbons and it was the one he recomended.
