[s-cars] RE: Interested in purchasing a rear diff

[Dave Ellis]

Is this true for both the Pre-95.5 cars with the locking diff feature 
and the post 95.5 cars with the quattro IV with EDL system?

I had thought at some point in the past the torsen showed more benefit 
in the post 95.5 cars than in the earlier ones?  Of course it's 
possible I'm thinking of somehting else, too.
