the differences come down to how it shifts and this last line
WARNING: The shift kit will prove beneficial to the clutch packs in the tranny, but everything
else, especially the differential, drive shaft, CV Joints, etc will take the most abuse. Hopefully the
Quaife LSD will be out soon to help our weak trannies.

That'* all well and good, but there really simply is no comparison. I would consider that little kit nothing more than a bandaid, and an adustable vacuum modulator can have the same effect.
I also feel an LSD of any type is not the solution, or at least not the only one. Most Series 1 diff'* don't fail until well past 100k miles. A heavy duty built diff can be just as good, and has fewer wearing parts. An LSD is not much benefit to a car like ours unless you typically do one-wheel wonders all day long.
I've asked this question before, and I'll ask it again:
When was the last time you spun only one wheel in a straight line burnout?
