a torsen like wavetrac or quaife is better than the OE viscolok. if you have no direct comparison to a clutch type drexler, you will be happy. if you have, you will always opt for the clutch type unit.
this is the reason you read mixed experience with torsens. the ones that have no comparison do like it, the others are disappointed.

people often want a torsen because they are advertised as "maintenance-free". but this does not mean they are "wear-free". they do wear and if they are worn out they need to be completely replaced and cannot be rebuilt like a clutch type unit.

if you want to go the torsen route anyway, i'd suggest the wavetrac over the quaife. wavetrac is the best torsen unit out there.
