Me: briefly, I like the taller ring gear for the "hole shot"; I liked the idea of a direct R&R swap for the stock diff; and lastly, no maintenance.
I've only driven mine for a few days so far, so I'll provide more feedback as I get more miles on it, but it was great for those first few days.
Folks who have the TRD Clutch type unit will sing its praises; I'm sure its a top notch unit as well.

VSC
The clutch (wind-up) type LSD cannot ever come into play if the TRAC system is enabled, I don't know if turning off the VSC also turns off TRAC, it certainly doesn't turn off ABS.

This one is especially good.

General web searches are also helpful "clutch vs lsd", as well as some of the discussion here "differential", but the two links above should provide you a good foundation, and, the answers aren't coming from me.
