Default 2006 6MTs had either 50/50 or 40/60 F/R. I don't remember the exact ratio. BUT

04,05,&amp; 05.5 6MTs and ALL Tips have 60/40 front bias.

Default I think Doc means anything before 2006 had the 50/50.

But I think the 25th anniversary might have 40/60. I heard something about an easy way to tell is if they slapped the V8 badge on the side, the car has 40/60. I have no idea how true that statement is though. But I am pretty sure that 2006 &amp; up manuals have 40/60.

Default I thought that the early models were front wheel biased

But I could be mistaken. But I do know that 06 and later 6MTS aer MORE rear wheel biased than earlier models. IMHO, it doesn't make that big a difference.

Default Well one time I went on this ghetto dyno, which was 2 fwd dynos put together...

And the front &amp; rear read the same amount of hp.

Default Doc, our cars are 50/50. Just cuz you're ditching us for a 335, you don't have to make the...

...B6S4 look bad. It'll go 60/40 (and more) if the rear wheels are losing grip! - but normal Torsen split is 50/50.
