Was looking at the haldex vs torsen questions up on here and the blue vs orange vs stock controllers for the former. My impression is that the blue vs stock controllers change under what conditions the upt to 50/50 split can be made under for sending power rearward. My reading then is that with either the stock or blue controller, under normal conditions, ie non slip there is no power being sent to the rear wheels, that the awd is in efffect on demand and not full time? Thanks (puts on asbestos suit)

 

There is always power at the rear, but not nearly as much in low tq situations. Torsen has equal power constantly between front and rear and the haldex changes just about nonstop.

For more info on controllers, go to HPA's site. The blue is all you need for the street. The orange has been shown to be a little dangerous for street driving since it takes constant attention.

 

Thanks alot cincy, I just really wasnt sure whether there was any power at the rear during normal cruising.Ditto appareciate the DP answer from the other thread, I am probally going to do that as soon as I can after I get the car before doing much else.
