vid from saturday event, the ELSD works really well at autocross speeds & elements, it does not work well for me at the track, I'll be adding a M3 rear subframe/LSD at some point
There is no suspension band-aid that is going to fix this - you need a proper mechanical LSD to really achieve a meaningful improvement. I would highly recommend a clutch type - there is a lot of noise about the cheaper priced torsen-style alternatives but frankly there is a reason that virtually any seriously prepared BMW racecar goes clutch type and it is that they simply outperform on the track by a big margin. My diffsonline unit made night and day difference and that was only on a 128 - it would have been even more helpful with more torque from a turbo platform.
