Normally I'd say yes, but these days it's a tough call.

LSD's (limited slip differentials) are supposed to help tame torque steer on a powerful FWD car, as well as help it power out of tight corners. But many of them work poorly. The car boards and magazines would know.
I don't even know if some of those models have them. I believe the Mazdaspeed does. |
