I don't think any of you know how DCCD works. On Auto, it leaves the center diff open, which is the default torque split of 65/35 for 04-05 STi's until it senses side G's, at which point it begins to move torque to the front until it reaches full lock of 50/50. I don't think you'll see any side loads when drag racing, so with the diff in either open or auto, it still stays at the default torque split.

i am fairly confident i understand the workings of the diff quite well, most likely better than you. you know what they say about assumptions.

? He was spinning the tires not bogging the car. If anything he should've rev'd about a grand lower if not more.
