I vote LSD.
Quaife seems to make a solid LSD, but beware, there is no lifetime warranty that they advertise. It is "not valid in the United States." And they seem to send out units with wrong size components that do not fit your exact dif.

I have the Quaife installed on my car. Definitely the most "felt" mod i've done. Right next to that is the South Bend Clutch/flywheel. If you're wanting fantastic traction in a straight line and great grip during turns, get the Quaife. You won't be disappointed.
2nd thing...if you're using much more than 8lbs of boost you wouldn't want to go much higher in gearing as your shifting will have to be much faster, the rpms would revv like crazy. Though your acceleration would improve as well. There's always a give and take. Good luck on your decisions!

The vendor I mentioned is JGY motorsports. They're offering a 4 piston front bbk for $899 shipped:

Anyway, like everyone here, I'd say go with the LSD for what you're using it for.

I would not run that, they are wilwood parts pieced together for an inferiour combo. Look into the kits TCE Brakes sells. They are factory Wilwood kits designed by Wilwood to work on the Z. He does offer 1 non factory kit for the Z, but TCE really knows their stuff. All else fails, before you buy a Wilwood kit of any kind, call TCE and talk to Todd, he will set you in the right direction.
