I work in IT too but i do this as a hobby. I like mechanical and electrical engineering and a lot of my friends advised me to open up a mechanic shop but i would not do that. I prefer my desk.

No problem IMO. They both have oil screens on the pickup.

The down side to that is if too much stuff comes loose it will limit the flow through the screen.

I think the torsen creates some flow towards the screen in the rear of the trans but still, it is interesting that there's no oil pump but if an oil pump and aditional cooler would have been present i would have felt better.

BernieBenz

no pumps, screens nor filters involved.

than splash lubed... from what i could tell the only things getting lubed off the shaft passage are the sliding gears and that helps them slide easier.... i guess.

BernieBenz

suction screens, gut your filters, and rely on the bearing clearances to filter out the big stuff.
