The Torsen LSD is a mechanical system that doesn't involve electronics at all.
There are sensors in the twins that mess with the brakes, but not the LSD.

It can be worn or trashed by running different drive wheel diameters - for a long time.
It won't get borked by a few miles, but a few months would cause problems.
