Presumably it is for a speed sensor. But... on one side only?
Now that I think about it, I suppose that if one knows the speed of the propshaft, and the ratio of the gearing, then it's not necessary to have sensors on both output shafts. One could deduce the speed of the un-measured axle.
Any ide whether this is normally tied into the ABS on the host vehicle? I know little of BMW design.

That is the birthplace of the VSS in certain BMW models.
Most, actually almost all newer bimmers use their ABS sensors to feed the speedometer.
This model is actually to my advantage... We will build a conversion circuit to convert the signal from the BMW sensor to something the Miata can understand. It will have a calibration feature where different tire sizes or gear ratios will be a nonissue.
Also, the ring gear throws around all the oil, so there is little to no oil for this little thing to sling.
Where does one procure those ring and pinion sizes, and for how much cat food?
I had it custom built because diff work is black magic.
Everything except for the case is brand new.
Clutchpack is good for twice the HP and weight of my car, and is set up for my Miata.

This makes me think of the many times when I have violated not just the ten commandments, but all of the foundational doctrines of the Abrahamic religions as a whole.
