What I can say for sure is that GRMN spent a lot of R&D to build the specific diff and yes it makes a difference. Another thing to know is that Torsen (JTEKT Corporation) is actually owned by Toyota, so they know what they are doing.
I’m not saying you’re building a replica; I was just saying that I would personally be more interested in some of the other items compared to the diff, because of reasons stated earlier.

But as you mentioned, the GRMN unit works best for you and the specific problem you had. That’s fine. If it works, it works.
