Guard is the way to go... I have installed numerous units and had in my own builds. Nothing better or as reliable.

What if you can't get a guard what would you use? 2010 Carrera S manual.

They are available currently. Matt just sent me a brand new GT2 Pro LSD he specially set up to our specifications. Reach out to him and be patient. He’s been very busy. They are the best product you can get your hands on and worth the wait.

Spoke to Matt earlier today and he's no longer making them for this car. Any other options or if anyone has a used one would be appreciated.

Literally true for my car (997.2 c2s pdk with factory open diff)...
OS Giken seems like the only option any feedback on it will be appreciated.

I've been using OS Giken in my '07 GT3 for years. Absolutely no issues or complaints. It works great.

Guard rebuild kits seem to be available. I had Sharkwerks purchase / install one on my GT2 and am very happy with it. Guard is the gold standard IMHO.
