Even with the s15 hlsd drifting will be easier. I have a s15 hlsd in my can and have been in a few 240's with 2-way's and I can tell you right off the bat the S15 lsd is alot easier to live with on the street (doesnt make grinding noises) and is great for grip sports like autocross. Plus they are pretty resonable price wise.

Bah, it depends on what you plan to do anyway. Drift? go ahead and get a clunky 2.0LSD. The Helical is silent and grips perfectly for autox/road racing.
