Don't care about noise, since this car isn't driven on the street at all anymore.

Quaife/WaveTrac/Torsen - Might boil fluid, a little cheaper than the clutch types, low maintenance, quiet/unnoticeable.

Well, either way I'll probably do a diff cooler, though it may come later than the diff install itself. That aside, though: if we ignore the wheel droop issue, does the torsen-style action actually perform/feel better or worse on-track than a 1.5-way clutched when cornering hard? I know that's a somewhat-subjective question, but it seems to be the key question in deciding whether the maintenance/cost/complexity of the 1.5-way is worth it, and nobody ever answers it in a straightforward manner. I'm willing to give WaveTrac the benefit of the doubt on killing the wheel droop issue, their solution sounds reasonable.

From speaking with you, you said you wanted to remove the rear sway bar, and that would help with getting the rear wheel to droop more and stay on the ground.

Yeah, I guess that's true as well. Although, on the other hand, in general with my JRZ's there's very little available droop in the rear to begin with. When I put the car on the lift the fronts droop as expected, but the rears droop very little, relatively speaking. I'm guessing if I up the spring rates a bit when I remove that bar, that will help a little as well.
