          slam gas + slam Brakes = wheel spin.

          ot will help you with wheel spin, but if thats all you want do not put in LSD.

          I have 3.42s, and can peel out all day. I could do it too when i had 3.23s.

            before I had my kumho's, yes, i could squeal the tire off the line. I could also do a really good one legger too. now, I like keeping traction, and since the tires costed me so much, I don't do burnouts like I did before. now I get a little bit of wheelhop even w/ the open diff.

                  easy job for an auto...just press in the brake a little and then slowly give it the gas and keep adjusting the two slightly and the back end will give out. Oh btw, I never have to come close to flooring it to do a burnout. Oh and to peel...just slam the gas from a standstill :D Don't be afraid to hit it hard.

                    Trust me a burnout is possible on any 3.8 and just about any 3.4

                    I WAS ABLE TO SQUEAL TIRES IN A PONTIAC SUNFIRE (115HP, NO TORQUE) IN DRY WEATHER. You guys just aren't doing it right. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

                            Hey there, I have a stock 3.8 A4, with the limited slip differential and 3.42 gears, and I have no problem peeling out all day long. All I do is hit the gas from a stop, not using any brake and all, and my tires will squeel as much as I let them, using the break, I have had some fun, but I don't have to use it. So yes, go with the 3.42.
