We're still currently in the "let's see if this really works" prototype stage. So far, I've only gotten to play with the old MH-style Torsen, which is still a direct swap into a B5. When I take mine out of my '01 I'll have seen both types, and will be able to service any Torsen Center out of any Audi (not sure about the new style 40/60 static split yet).

The supplier (hint: $550 + core) of the modified differential denies any culpability...
blamed it on failure of the OEM parts. All three side gears in the rear were split lengthwise after about six months on my supercharged 2.8 and took out the Torsen housing when they failed. Not pretty.

wow...that's interesting....
from what I've found...if you mess the timing up...it WILL NOT want to turn...nevermind the fact that the side gears won't even line up to slide the axles into place. Makes you wonder how it was fuxored... These aren't exactly made of glass.
