Whats a better LSD setting for drifting a 2-way or a 1.5 way? Pro's, Cons? Which LSD works best?

Gotta get a better thread going than "does drifitng suck"!

it depends on your taste and car set up. will it be a daily driver, or daily drifter?

Pure road race and drift, never driven on the street.

What is a 2way, 1.5 way, and a 1 way? don't wanna change the topic. I know my car has a LSD but I've no clue as to what it is.

i would go with a 1.5 diff.
a 1.5 locks on acceleration and partly locks on deceleration.
a 2 way diff locks on acceleration and decleration
a one way locks only on acceleration

The 1.5 way locks partialy on decelleration and fully on accelleration. Have you actualy tried both or are you guessing?

I want to hear from people who have actualy experimented with this because your guessing is about as good as me just guessing!

Is it because the car turns in better?

i've only driven a Kaaz clutch-type 1.5 way(wich was on my old 240), but it seemed to work to my liking, it locked up nicley every time i shifted and it let me turn in smoothly while locking up when i needed it to while i accelerated out of the turn...but i wish i had more track time with it as i only raced with it a few times as i only had it for 2months before i sold my beloved car for my beloved(but tempermental) FD...wich has a Torsen diff...lemme tell you, torsen diffs are not as strong as i thought..so i will be getting a Kaaz clutch type 1.5 way LSD like my 240 had...
