Default Haldex Control Unit help in straight line acceleration?

<center><img src="http://www.namotorsports.net/images/haldex.jpg"></center><p>will thing thing help in the 1/4 mile or overall straight line acceleration?
seeing as it puts more power to the rear wheels, does that mean less HP is being lost through the drivetrain? i like to autocross so im sure this mod would help there, but id like to know if this would be a good invesment for the drag strip as well.
not sure if anyone has gotten out to the track with one of these things...

TIA.

I don't have either, but I think theoretically, that one should help better, $ for $

Default The first magazine review I read of it was on an R32...

they claimed it knocked 0.4 seconds on the 0-60 which is really quite significant.

If I wasn't leasing this car, I'd buy one of these. Anyone have this in OH?
