I can't tell if you're trolling us now or genuinely believe this, but this may be the single most ridiculous thing you've ever posted...which is saying something. The eLSD is not cheaper than a normal LSD - in fact it has to be way, way more expensive. Keep in mind that lesser option packages on these cars do, in fact, have "regular" LSDs and the eLSD is reserved for the more expensive performance packages (at least on the C7 and Camaro). You must have no idea how this eLSD works, or there's no way you'd write that. They have all the same clutch parts as a regular LSD, plus a separate control module and hydraulic system just to manage the clutch engagement. You just don't know what you're talking about. There are cars that use differential brake application as a poor-man's LSD, but this isn't one of them!
