Re: Hypothetical Question

both of those options would make a pretty tough parallel parking situation

Any kind of limited slip would try strongly to return to center, getting stronger as you go toward the limit. That can have the effect of increasing oversteer since its trying to keep both wheels moving at the same speed. Usually the inner wheel ends up turning faster since its unloaded and you lose the little bit of grip that it started with.

Torsens offer full differentiating with a 50/50 torque split, so they would probably offer the least oversteer at greater steering angles.
