E46 LSD options

[rumatt]

I'm trying to pick an LSD for my car. I'm leaning toward the MFactory helical, but I'm just not excited about it. I like the idea of quiet and low-maintenance, but am wondering how often I'm going to end up spinning one wheel anyway (I did get a stiffer rear bar...) If I could find a quiet clutch type I could be convinced to jump to that instead.

Nick, didn't you have a diffsonline diff? Was it noisy? Did you like it?

Options thus far:

MFactory helical / torsen: MFactory highly recommends for a street driven car. They downplay the odds of spinning one wheel and say you'll love it.

MFactory 1.0 or 1.5 way: MFactory says they're noisy and not recommended for street

Wavetrac: A helical that supposedly prevents wheel spin during lift. Sounds ideal in theory... but JV heard bad things about them

diffsonline: Their site tells me very little

OS Gilken: double the price and require more frequent oil changes.
