One LSD per driven axle so just 1 on the MX5. 4x4's have a front rear power split but each axle has its own diff to properly proportion the power on bends where the outside wheels cover more distance than the inner wheels.

Have a read of this it will explain it more fully for you. http://www.torquecars.com/tuning/limited-slip-diffs.php
