Thanks for that Kansei ;)

I hope I'm not going too off topic but does your T2 make any noise over bumps or on the straight at slow speeds?

What sort of noise? a clunk, a whine?

I haven't noticed any extra noises since I swapped from the open. In carparks there's the occational clunk but that's driveshaft slack I think (It was there way before the Torsen went in)

I haven't noticed any noises, it sounds exactly the same as when the open diff was in.
(bear in mind, my exhaust is a bit noisy, so if it's only a quiet noise I probably can't hear it)
