Well you can't use the ACD without converting your car to AWD. Which might not be such a bad idea, but then for that you might as well wait and get an Evo.

Kickin,
The active diffs on the Evo are for the rear (Evo 4-7) and centre (Evo 7 only).

I have a Torsen front LSD in my Evo 6 RSX but I don't know if you could get it into your standard box.

Andy

The front LSD on the Evo is in the transfer box. FWD cars won't have a transfer box so no, an Evo LSD won't fit.
