I can bring my DCCD G sensor to the meet next week asuming I pick up my stuff at S-Squared.
Here's an excerpt from another article...

The new electro-hydraulic system has a yaw-rate sensor, which senses if the car is pivoting and will quickly alter the power sent to each wheel.

The current STi, which already has excellent traction, has a system that's not quite so quick to react. It detects load and slippage of the wheels before redirecting power.

The new system also features a centre differential that can be controlled by the driver, depending on how they like the car to behave. That means the driver can decide which wheels they want more power sent to.
