EVO8 KAAZ rear LSD setting

I'd like to change initial torque of KAAZ rear LSD.
Is there good shop who can take care of it in South San Diego area?

ive been thinking bout getting one of these diffs to replace my tired stocker. aside from the slow lockup, how would you rate your experience with it?

I have a KAAZ DBM2030 that is fitting with EVO1 to EVO8 w/o ACD. It can get strong traction. Really nice!! But, chattering noise is a little loud too.

I have Quaife front Diff and KAAZ rear diff. After KAAZ was installed, it becames more FR like handling. But, this is not fitting with my driving style. I like more FF like handling. So, in order to change it to more FF like handling with KAAZ, probably I need to replace Quaife front Diff by another Clutch type front LSD, or reduce initial torque to be milder.

If you install KAAZ rear diff and stiff rear swaybar, it becomes drifting car!!!

I had the kazz in my transfer case in my evo v and i spoke to kazz customer service and they told me that when the shatter is not there the diff needs to be rebuilt and that they just came out with a set of replacement disks that eliminate the shatter but they wore close to 400 us so i sold the evo v and bought an evo 8 and went with shepherd stage 3 transfer case, no more shatter, i cant even tell that the quiaife diff is even there. Now i like to drive my car.

I'm not selling both Quaife and KAAZ. Just want to adjust KAAZ setting.
