ok i have a 2009 with pony package, i am confused because everywhere i read it says that they dont come with the limited slip diff.... i have done a burnout and i left two tread marks on road?? mine came with a rear sway bar already installed, is it possible it has trac-lok as well? i only ask because i am ready to order the 3.73 gears and need to know if i need to buy the traclok as well.

I'm sorry to say but the V6 did not come with an LSD unit. Your probably were at the sweet spot when you launched where both tires lost traction at the same time causing you to leave two marks. A better indicator would be to crank the wheel all the way in one direction and light them (or better) it up and you'll see only one wheel spinning as you start doing donuts.

Check the door code sticker under "axle" will be two letters,

BG — 3.31 — non-limited slip, base vehicle with manual or automatic transmission

CD — 3.55 — limited slip, GT with manual transmission

CG — 3.31 — limited slip, GT with automatic transmission
