I only read that one piece in the press release that clearly stated the new EDL system become active once the traction control is defeated. This makes sense too, since if it was active along with the ASC, then it would compete with the traction control system, which retards the engine on wheel slip.

Mechanical diffs work by pressure plates sensing slip. That can take more than milliseconds. That's why I did say that I was 'assuming'. Neither of us can say for sure.
