What are the tangible benefits of LSD?
(Pardon the likely silly question, still have a few things to learn )

My understanding is that with a regular diff a spinning wheel on the axle will rob power from the side with traction?

If I'm thinking correctly a LSD will ensure that the wheel with traction gets an equal amount of power regardless of whether theres traction or not?

I assume the Diff is inside the Boxster transmission, so how/where is such a device added?
