[QUOTE="bumwhine, post: 1236879, member: 26417"] I have a 2018 802A with the Torsen. Regardless, this thread is about gauging interest on a REAR application for a Wavetrac differential... of which there seems to be none. A Torsen is designed to bias torque to the wheels that can accept the traction, which is why they aren't a true 'limited slip' differential. If by 'traditional diff' you mean 'open differential' you are correct, the wheel is free to spin. The differential is not fighting you, it is aiding you. To imagine that you'd replace a mechanical limited slip or helical differential in any performance-oriented car with an electronic nanny is pretty humorous though. Maybe if it was an electrohydraulic clutch system like those in some Audi Quattros I'd agree. Good lord I can't get this forum's YouTube embed to work: [url]https://youtu.be/JEiSTzK-A2A[/url] Another video comparing pros/cons of each type: [url]https://youtu.be/x40WGUtdaLI[/url] Wavetrac differential: [url]https://youtu.be/QEhLGe_M6XU[/url] [/QUOTE]
