With a limited slip, your car hooks up early out of corners. Under acceleration, engine torque is delivered primarily to the right rear wheel and if this wheel is unloaded (as when turning right) the tire will spin. The left wheel, though heavily loaded, gets little power and the car will not accelerate until the right wheel regains traction. Even in a straight line, the right rear will break away first, limiting acceleration to the grip of only one tire. The limited slip differential ensures power is delivered to both rear wheels. Note you will likely need two fresh bearings and two seals to complete the install which you can get at any local Mazda dealer or we can provide on request as an addition to the order ($8.00 for each seal and $49 for each bearing).
