That would not had happened with a 1.5/2 way, the torsen completely disengages even at the shortest or smallest drops in throttle.
Even when keeping it in a straight line and backing off it kicks out and fish tails. I can feel it switch between wheels alot.
With a 2 way I'd just back off let it correct itself and get back on it as much as I want repeatedly.
I challenge anybody here to do a 3rd gear sideways powerslide with a torsen without completely losing it like that vid.

I agree, the torsen is very tail snappy. 1.5way - 2 way is the goer believe you me for more controlled sliding action _________________WA's Most Powerful 6spd Aristo

Torsen is fine for daily duties / rare trip to the track OGaristo
I have a hunch a manual makes the torsen issue worst as mine isnt too bad (i know the aristo in the clip is auto) But i havent tracked it at all but if the weather is dry it generally seems fairly predictable

^^^ agree with first comment but cannot recommend any sort of drift or powerskid activities with a torsen.
