So, does he get banned for insulting the board owner? Or banned for post whoring? Or banned for once again derailing a technical thread? Maybe for general retardation? I'm all for votes from the contributing members that are tired of this thread-back-from-the-dead crap like I am.

And for the record, Alex, you still cannot change the torque split of the center diff... it's made out of gears. It's not a transmission, it's not a CVT, it's not electric motors... it's gears, with a 35/65 ratio. I'm still under the impression that you can't ever get more than 35 of the engine output to the front wheels, but there's a decent argument to the contrary (not that you contributed in the least towards the technical discussion) based on the locking of the clutch. But either way, that knob never turns the car into a FWD or RWD car, nor does it change the ratio in the diff. Oh, but I'm sure you meant "torque levels as seen by the wheels" when you quoted that C&D article.

And FYI, the diff works a lot better when it locks up during braking as it balances the braking force through all four tires, but I'd rather not spin out while braking. Not that I have a programmable DCCD controller and 1000's of track miles with it or anything... I'm sure you know so much more about this 'cause you read the STI brochure and hit a rallycross or two.
