    Default 1.9 cdti pulls right on acceleration. normal?

    Not sure if did it before lowering or not now? And could be cause used to lsd on my old vec. I've had full laser track align setup done. Camber and everything all correct now! It drives straight normally, no motorway wander but under hard acceleration pulls right! Nothing looks worn and no knocks and bangs or anything? Is this normal? Cheers Mike

    That is normal. It's called torque steer mate. The way the drive shaft turns is the direction the wheels will turn if you hit the gas too hard.
