After installing my KAAZ I feel the car changing lines when I accelerate and let go. Not sure if it is just the soft bushes in all the control arms, or something else is up.
When you are in the power, BOTH rear wheels are trying to drive the car equally (and straight ahead at that), and if you have any steering input into the car at that time, the rear tyres are loading the front, so you inhernetly apply a little more steering input to tighten the turn in the direction you are steering.

If you jump out of the gas (abruptly), the car will feel like it "tucks" or "darts" back in and steers more that you;d think - that is just physics as you were applying a tad more steering to cover for the fact that the locked diff is trying to drive the car straight yet you still want it to turn.

If the rear suspension bushes as suspect, the LSD will be loading them as well, so you'll feel some rear steer as well.
