"The Zexel web page says the type I is more 'sport' oriented and the TypeII is less active. (http://www.zexel.co.jp/zxle/product/torsen_e.htm ) I understand the gears are reversed in the TypeII meaning that it provides the best bias when deaccelerating and a subdued bias when accelerating. FWIW, An ex-Ford drivetrain engineer on the autox list said he tested the TypeI and II in the Mustang for the then new SN95 Cobra and he hated the TypeII for autox like maneuvers"
