What clutch are you planning to switch to?That's awesome. The LSD is my favorite mod that I have done to my car. The one wheel peel fest was really lame and turning under hard throttle with the lsd is a night and day difference in my opinion.
If I were you I would stay away from the fx350 with the stock flywheel. That's what I'm running and it started slipping at 30000 miles. I have around 33000 on it now and it's slipping so bad that I quit running e85 and set boost by gear to 10psi in 4th, 5th and 6th just to get it to stop slipping.
I switched to Eman's type r retro fit.I ended up buying an mfactory LSD and have that installed. Total cost would be around $1.6k for parts and labor. Including clutch install.
Fx300 -$260
MF LSD - $700
Shop Labor - $900
What clutch are you planning to switch to?

It's holding up great. It's my favorite mod that I've done to the car.I know I'm super late to this post but sick build man!! First successful post I've seen of an si tranny swap into a hatch even though there might be more. How's it holding up after these years?
How did the exhaust sound when you remove the mid resonator and plugged it?I decided I liked the sound of the exhaust better with the middle exhaust pipe open. So I had a pipe welded in to make the 3rd exhaust tip functional.
I am really happy with how it sounds at the moment. I'm also happy about the middle exhaust tip being functional. It really bugged me that the middle exhaust tip was just for looks. I have been asked several times "what does the middle tip do?" and it just feels so lame telling them its just for looks.
