It is not as quick and smooth as a real limited slip differential. The turbo lag from the engine adds to the complexity, making it more difficult. A Quaife differential is a nice upgrade for those who do drifting regularly. The e-diff is more suited to driving fast on the limit, with unintentional slides. It makes it possible to put the foot down quite early in corners, and it takes care of the power on understeer by braking only the inside wheel. It could be sold as torque vectoring.
