Plated diff is either giving it everything it's got, or nothing, as opposed to the quaife that always shifts the torque wherever is needed more, and will never lock up completely. Also, plated diff needs wheelspin before it does anything, while torsen does its stuff before any slip occurs.
Much more civilized for daily driving, much less aggressive. It will break the box before the plated diff would, though, much harder on the casing.
