I've heard the Auburn is weakest, the Zexel-Torsen, only a little stronger, and the Eaton is way stronger. That's just what seems to be the general consensus from the reading/research I have done here.

the way i looked at it was this, i got the stock Torsen posi for $100, a eaton is $400, an eaton is going to break damn near as soon as the torsen launching the car. So save the $300 and put it towards a 12bolt in the future. Thats how i looked at it anyways
