lsd choice

hi...im looking at the carbonetic carbon lsd for my fd...i did some research about the 1.5way vs the 2way lsd...it basically said that the 1.5way will be easier for a beginner circuit driver as it does not lock on deceleration as aggressivley as the 2way making the car easier to control for the beginner...but for a real track car the 2way will yield faster corner speeds....

i do have experience with circuit racing but i wouldnt call myself an expert....my major concern is "outgrowing" the 1.5way lsd...like everyone else i want to become a better driver but i do not kno if the 2way lsd will be a bigger bite than i can handle right now...it would be a costly to want to change lsd's later down the road...

so to the more experienced drivers who have driven both types of lsd's...is it that much of a difference in handling?....what would you recommend?...

i had an ATS (former name of carbonetics) deftforce 1.5 way. It had a switchable cam in the diff to change from 1.5 to 2 way should you choose. This might still be the case.
