    Usually Front/Rear mate.

    edit* yeah looks the other way around the way he's said it as more power would be going to the fronts not the rear

    50/50 is probably the static distribution when there is no slip...

    Dynos do wierd things with torque splitting systems I'd imagine...

    Here is a good quote for you..

    Magna AWD employs a viscous limited-slip rear differential, Evo VI transfer case, open front differential common with Evo VI RS and Evo VII, and a centre differential with viscous coupling from Evo VI. Like most viscous coupled all-wheel drivetrains, Magna AWD delivers a 50/50 front/rear torque split in normal conditions.

    In theory, it can transfer a maximum of 100 per cent drive to either end and can never be "beached' if one rear wheel has traction, but in practice the system resists any relative front/rear axle speed differential by heating and locking up.

    It's normaly quoted front then rear.
    I'll pull my dyno sheet out when i get home.
    I'm acctualy pretty sure my power went to the rear but i cant remember 100%

    ** Looking at a scan of it of got on my computer at work it looks like it gone to the front but i cant read the figures, i have miss read the sheet. Regardless of where it went its not a locked figure.

    Just think, Rite now AndrewD is at home thinking about lowering his Coffee table.

    Lots of things

    Not 100% sure on the technical install, just spoken to people who drove the MMAL test mules and reading about box durability and reliability on the Evo scene. With enough $ and perserverance anything is possible.
