Default Which limited slip should I get?

Im going to buy a limited slip and I need to know if I should just get the truetrac over the tlok. Now in the future I plan on having a procharger set up like flapjack's or meybe the powerhouse turbo. Plan on running about 300hp to 320tq at the wheels for a daily driver. Now I have a manual so what would hold up better in the long run. I know screamin is running outragous TQ #'s on his tlok but his car is also an automatic. What do you all think. I kinda like how the detriot truetrac doesn't use a clutche (correct?)

That's the gear oil. It's like $20 a quart, get 3 quarts. You have to get it from the Ford parts department. Don't be like me and get the wrong gear oil, you won't like the noise it makes.

ya they upped the price, was 382 when i got mine.

also you only need 2 quarts for the rear, 3 only if you plan on spilling some or want some xtra for some reason.
