    Brandi (BBsTT) said you'd be the guy to ask this, since I didn't get much of a response when I posted.

    I'm really interested in these HPA Haldex controllers. On the one hand, there's no doubt it "works" the Haldex clutch much more than the stock setup. On the other hand, these Haldex clutches appear to be quite strong, from what I can tell from searching the various forums.

    You've been in the TT world for a long time, and are pretty technically inclined, per Brandi. What's your take on Haldex longevity? I'm not really worried about ability to handle a highly-modded engine, more the issue of "is this thing going to handle being 'on' all the time", as the HPA controller does its thing.

    Any comments you have on this subject would be greatly appreciated.
