Default Torque split on A3 3.2 Quattro????????

I'm new to the Audi World coming from a pretty well modified Subaru WRX(It was a PAIN IN THE AS- as a daily driver but I miss the 347 BHP kick in the butt) and I was wondering,what is the tourque split in the Quattro system using the Haldex Diff on the 3.2 Quattro? By the way, these P6's SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm wondering if the understeer is due to the Crap Tires, the limited tourque split to the rear, or the combo of the two. It feels like a FWD rather than an AWD at speed! Thanks for any feedback!

Default Difference between the Haldex Diff and the other Audi Quattro Diff torque split or, the same??

What is the diffference in the torque split from the conventional Audi Quattro diff torque split compared to the Haldex Diff?
