open diff not as good as lsd. w/ lsd you are able to go forward and around corners with better force.

If you drive your car on the track, you kill your inside tire since it spins more and you get less grip. So yes, you do lose traction. Also, open diffs on 03s are not too strong so you can screw it up and have the car undriveable. Should have come with front LSD. No idea what Mitsu was thinking when they brought it without one.

I guess on a HARD turn you would lose traction and understeer with an 03 EVO but I never had an issue, I have coilovers though. I figure at the very limit you would get a different, but I doubt you'll see it on the street except maybe in a HARD launch.

Turbo Trixx offers a cheap LSD and they run it in the Orange Drag Evo, talk to them.
