It's 50/50 with a viscous coupled diff in the middle on the manual transmission WRX's and on the autos I think it is electronically controlled...

to be accurate, it varies with the condition of lockup exhibited by the center VC unit in the center differential (in the MT).

without that VC you get a 50:50 TORQUE split. power is the product of a force * a distance, so then it becomes more complicated.

To be REALLY accurate Work = Force * Distance and Power = Work/time
