Default upgrading differential?

what are the different kind of diffs. out there, and their benefits?

the blurb i saw on the f-racing t-lok said something the right rear wheel getting all the power or something, but i dont get why -

but more important is the first question - whats the benefit of upgrading?

2 wheels = more traction and ur car goes straighter, especially when you launch hard.

I learned a lot of what I know about cars long before there were personal computers and web sites with information available at your fingertips! LOL I still have the set of HOT ROD magazine soft cover books explaining how various auto systems work and some battle scars on my fingers, head, elbows, toes, etc. from working on cars for a living for a couple of years before I wised up and got a real job making real money that didn't require me to bust my *** all the time and now I can work on my car for purely pleasurable reasons.
