why do you need lsd when the crv is awd?

Not necessarily, if it's awd I'm pretty sure you're S.O.L. If it's fwd I think you could get away with a normal LSD you would just have to call a few companies to see if they're compatible.

edit: after further review I see that you do have awd, that being the case any traction loss to the front wheels due to your turbo plans would be transferred to the rear wheels to help you launch.

also check out hondasuv.com and crvownersclub.com, this has been done before and sure if you ask real nice they'll help you out.

It is diferent than a fwd becouse of the transfercase gear . The only wheel that really pulls is the rf . The rear diff is just clutch packs . I've called several diff companies , they said they never had a request for one . I have a lsd for a b16 , The ring gear mounting plate is about 3/8 " off . maybe a machine shop could make it work . I'll turbo it if I can make it work . Thinking of getting a s2000 rear diff . Any thoughts .

My thought is you should get rid of it and just get a Civic. I happen to have one.... LOL. J/K. But seriously...

Look at inline pro's CRV. It did OK and I'm pretty sure it was stock diff. I know for sure it ran a 13.0 and that was a GSR engine (turbo obviously) with the stock trans, IIRC.

They may make one for the diff in the tranny, but I don't think they make a phantom grip for the rear diff.

Anyway the design/idea of phantom grip just does not sit right with me. It seems like it would cause alot of wear on the spider gears.

I like to things the hard way . I'm going to try the b16 diff and a s2000 rear diff . It's hard not to try it when I get the idea in my head .
