I don't mind if you ask this question ... in the Mod forum rather than the R&C forum.

I believe in the February issue of Grassroots Motorsports we do a on track test with Data between a Kaaz , OS Giken , and OEM dif in the T3 S2000. Might provide you with some data to help make your decision.

Did it focus on which one makes the least noise?

I think a straight cut dogbox would be quieter than a 2-way LSD. Plus it would handle all that mad power if he decides to do a 2JZ swap later on.

Formula Redline,
2-Way as in locks on accel and decel vs 1.5 way which locks on accel only.

jirro,
Either the Carbonetic or the ATS carbon LSD will be the quietest.
I have heard good things about the quality of the OS Giken LSDs also, but have no personal experience with how much noise they make.

The Kazz is by far the loudest I have heard.

Asura, I've considered your opinion on the matter. Unfortunately I've decided not to accept your hypothesis, I'm sure you'll understand.
