Quattro generations (was: Miata Torsen)

[TM]

Peter,
Off the list, if you like, please explain to me how you
can have a locking Torsen diff. I admit I don't have any
expertise w/ regard to this topic, but my understanding of
diffs is that you cannot have a locking LSD. That would be
like having power-assisted manual brakes- an oxymoron.

Taka
