Torsen diff

Peeps

being as the car doesn't have a 'true' LSD, just an 'E-diff' I was considering this offering from Quaife

http://quaife.co.uk/quaife-products/...-differential/

its proper torque sensing torsen diff as used in the honda integra, Ford focus RS and the Mini cooper S

thoughts?

cheers for the links chaps, lots of good information,
Am I right in saying the diff is actually an open diff and the locking action is all done on the brakes? or is it a torsen ?

All US spec cars have torsen diff, not sure if all version of the UK spec cars have that.
