In regards to making a 2 way change into a 1 or 1.5 way LSD by changing some settings.

There are no settings that will allow such a change. You would have to open up the LSD and swap the internal structure.

Now you can open up the LSD and change how the internal clutches are stacked, which then changes the LSD's engagement characteristics. (IE: 100% to 95%, 90%, etc) Even after changing how the clutches are stacked you are still going to have a 2 way that locks during acceleration and deceleration.

If you are wanting the locking action of a 1 or 1.5 way LSD rather than a 2 way. Your best bet is to swap your LSD.
