what is the difference between the Quattro IV system and the Subrau's AWD?

not as the haldex is currently programmed.. it has great potential with diff programming...
the haldex is FWD until it needs it... and even then there is a bit of leg between when it needs it and when the clutch activates and give tires the power.

Didn't mean to imply the Subaru system was 100/0 split ...
But the system definitely drives like a FWD under normal conditions. In snow you can really tell ... I was shocked how much it seemed to be biased to the front, driving almost like many front-drivers I've owned until the back was dispatched.
My bad on claiming it as FWD.

It is 100% seamless unless your dumping your clutch, but if magazine 0-60 #'s were all that
mattered, we'd all be driving WRX's. And I'm talking dry to damp pavement. Once its gets real wet, Torsen takes the cake.
