the car on top is before acd and the bottom one is after install acd. the before one have more power to the rear. after acd installed there is more power to the front. that's why evos without acd can skid side to side more easyer then the newer evo. hum I think I am righ.

I'm interested, but 800-900 sounds a little steap, we'll just have to see what the real world benifits are.
On another note. It would be an awsome thing to be able to have the capability to disable the FWD and have RWD only on demand. Then you'd have the best of both worlds, RWD & AWD. I'd be willing to spend a fair amount for that!

It is worth 800 bucks for people who road race and autocross. Paul, locking that ACD would produce better 60 ft times for the drag racers wouldn't it?

i really feel sorry for you.

all you have to do is do a search and you will find out how ACD really works but you obviously has no intention of doing that.

Well, i'm pretty sure I did a full writeup on what the ACD does and it's been stickied here for several months now...

But back to the topic, I agree that 8-900 sounds a bit steep. Something more like 4-500 might be more reasonable. I guess time will tell.

By the way, how far away is this from production and release to the public?
