New B7's have a 60/40 (Rear to Front ) Drive split on the AWD system. Are our UR's similar in AWD?

What are the main differences in the AWD over the last 10 years? I also understand that the TT and the A3 AWD (future) will share the Haldex system. My perception is that the Haldex favors the rear and that the responsiveness might not be quite as good as what is currently on the A4,A6 etc. but nevertheless very efficient.

Default Haldex isn't true quattro.

To me, quattro is torsen or locking diffs.
Haldex is traction control.<ul><li><a href="http://www.ibiblio.org/tkan/audi/usmodels.html">Quattro guide (scroll to the bottom)</a></li></ul>

our Torsen system can provide 66% of power to any wheel, and is even when no slipping
