also the turbo housing it a lot sturdier the stock diff is only a peg leg to when you switch it over to the turbo one it will be either a viscous or a torsen and i would suggest the torsen cause the viscous is a clutch type and they tend to burn out really fast depending on the type of driving you plan of doing I.E. track or drift

^ No, FC limited slip rear ends are either clutch type (S4) or viscous (S5). Viscous is not the same as a clutch type rear end. Only an FD rear end is going to be torsen.

The TII rear end uses an 8" ring gear, while all NA rear ends (open and LSD) are 7". The halfshafts are larger, most everything else is larger, and it's built a good amount stronger. But an NA rear end can still handle a good amount of power, unless you abuse it regularly. I've used an S4 NA LSD in my turbo swapped car for the last 3 years without issue, and others have used them with larger turbos.
