You did the Hotchkis swaybars right? How are those working for you?

Default Nope, still wouldn't change the fact that in most cases Haldex is reactive
it takes some amount of slip for the diff to kick in. Torsen reacts as the slip occurs. With the upgraded controllers haldex can kick in based on throttle input but that wouldn't really help here.

Sounds like the skid control kicking in. You'd rather slide into a ditch?
