Limited slip diff needed in Leon FR???

Hey everyone,
I'm looking at getting my ecu re mapped and having the dpf removed as well as the full exhaust done. :D

One thing I have thought of was with all that extra power; wouldn't it be wasted with an open diff?? :cry: I've looked everywhere and can't seem to find proof that the FR does or does not have a LSD.

I'm sure it doesn't because of cost in production. When I turn the traction control off, in the wet the front end skips around under power in 2nd gear.

The tyre quality isn't the best but I thought it would be better to have both wheels spin rather than the one and can’t put the power down?? :confused:. Impressive power but thrown away..

It does feel like both are spinning but can't be sure..
