Answering this in another way, a torque biasing LSD probably won't hurt, but it probably won't do much to help in snow and ice. But it would be a lot of fun on dry roads. A clutch type can lead to instability in slippery conditions, which, in a mid-engine car could be dangerous.

I appreciate your input a lot and you seem to know your stuff, but what I'm looking for is an LSD that would help me from a standing start; if I start up my car and there's snow and ice under the rear wheels, would an LSD help BOTH wheels spin at the same time?
Because last winter it was pathetic to see only one rear wheel spinning at a time when people tried to push my car to when I got stuck
I remember when I had an S2000 (which has TORSEN LSD) I would almost never get stuck in snow-ice.
Both my Boxster S and S2000 had the exact same kind of winter tires with same width on the rear wheels.
If this doesn't make any sense and an LSD would only help for when you're driving at speed in snowy conditions please pardon my ignorance
