3:15 lsd upgrade
I have a 14 mustang gt convertible and from the door sill it has the 3:15 Limited Slip Differential, i thought about swapping the gears out for 3:73's but was told it might be too radical of an upgrade for a daily driver
i also wanted to know it it was possible to swap the LSD for a torsen differential while i had it apart i can order the parts just not sure the axle housing is the same, i guess with COVID-19 i have plenty of time for updates to my car as self-isolation is starting to get the better of me
i am also looking at adding navigation,remote start,changing the spark plugs,brakes,and cat-back exhaust.. if i can i will pick up all the parts and drop it off at a shop with a hoist as car ramps won't cut it...also looking for a convertible top boot for the car as well but 800 seemed a little steep from the dealership

it has the automatic in it... just seems the 3:15 are a little lacking but i guess they are ok for running around in the city, but i am looking to have a little more fun with my car this year last year after i bought it i injured my knee so it got sidelined now i am stuck at home, "THINKING" possible upgrades for the car 1st and foremost it is getting a Flowmaster Outlaw cat-back exhaust system next week that should wake the neighbors,not that i am that guy but hey i didn't buy the car to be quiet.
Right now the car sits stock as far as i know the way it was originally purchased but you never really can tell unless you meet the original buyer

Do you currently, or do you have plans, to road-track the car? If not then I don't think there is any benefit to the Torsen differential; unless you have some extra money you want to get rid of.
I think 3.31 or 3.55 is probably a better match for the automatic . . . or just use "sport" mode so it holds a lower gear longer

i am not sure what i want to do with the car yet i have even thought about selling it and putting the money in the bank i have put 800KM or roughly 500 miles on it since june 2019 as right after i bought it i tore my knee and was sidelined from driving it my doctor told me to sell it and buy something a little bigger.
money is running thin i want to do some upgrades to the car but only if i keep it so there has been alot of times i just think.
i do have a second car so this one is kind of the toy that got bought and paid for and never gets played with.
