Torsen is not offered on non GT Mustangs.What does an auto ecoboost PM have
Saw 2 listed on beefcakes site, Ford and someone elses, and wondered what the difference was

Yup, mine grendaed. It sucked having to buy another one.They're perfectly fine and actually preferable to the Torsen for hard launches or drag racing. Torsen is better for road courses but if you launch them too hard they'll grenade and there is no simple rebuilding the clutches like you can with the TrakLok.
All mustangs have an LSD only the GTPP and GT350s have torsen, All the rest have T lock- no S550 was built with an open diffSo wait, is that an open diff then??
Should be limited slip diff. Just not Torsen type.So wait, is that an open diff then??
Yeah, screw thatAn open differential will apply power to the wheel with less traction while the opposite wheel receives little to no power. They suck
The Eco HPP has a torsen. The Trak-Loc can be made to work with extra plates for more locking, but it is limited. The feeling of the Torsen on throttle is different than an open or the Trak-Loc. It has the effect of helping to turn the car. If you're not comfortable with it, you might think the car is getting loose, but really it's just uneven drive load across the axle. Once you're used to it, you can use it to your advantage.Every model has the same Traction-Loc clutch-style differential with the exception of the GT with Performance Package and the Shelby GT350/R.
I suppose it's possible, but this is not normal. You've got something else going on.What I don't like about torsen diffs is they will spin one tire then spin the other, rince and repeat till you are going fast enough for equal traction.

LOL, I missed that. Your post is recent, though. Are you _sure_ you're getting this oscillation side-to-side?The post you've responded to was little dated, not sure if you noticed ;-)
In 2015, no one heard about HPP Ecoboost.
What oscillations ? ;-)LOL, I missed that. Your post is recent, though. Are you _sure_ you're getting this oscillation side-to-side?
Ya, I mistook you for K4fxd.What oscillations ? ;-)
