torque split is 50/50, so 1/2 the power is in the front, and 1/2 in the rear

torque split is physically geared at 50/50, period

as i understand it, the diffs can change the locking rate to allow a degree of slip, but that wont change the gearing, it'll still be 50/50

no, not true...50/50 is 50/50

subi's have a user controlled diff i think, so they can move power to the rear (dont quote me on that though)
