The Torsen differentials are mechanical limited slip The Torsen type limited slip differential (LSD) differentials which deliver the available Dower to the distributes optimum power between the two driving wheels and axles with the most grip or resistance as axles according to the difference in torque demanded the engine torque output increases.
Page 476: System Description

Rear Differential System Description The vehicle uses the Torsen type limited slip differential (LSD) which is rubber mounted to the sub-frame Construct'ron . The Torsen type LSD assembly consists of the two side gears, eight planetary gears, three side washers, tvvo center washers, a gear case cover and a gear case.

Operation . Straight-road driving The differential carriel and gears rotate together as a unit when both wheels rotate at the same speed. Turning eflort from the final driven gears are directlv transmitted to both wheels. . When rounding a curve When the vehicle rounds a curve, the differential allows the outer wheel to rotate a little faster than the Inner wheel.
