Will a friction modifier help transfer more power to the rear wheels?

As I understand we are limited on the amount of power sent via the computer to the rear wheels.

I don't believe so as it will not change the actual engagement signal from the pcm.

I don't know that I'd mess with it, JTEKT spent a bunch of time and money developing the fluid for the coupling.

My AWD gauge says there is plenty of power going to the rear, at least when provoked.

Any ideas to get more power transfer to the RDU?

Modifying the PWM signal?

The pwm can be modified in ids for troubleshooting. I doubt anyone will touch this because this all ties in to the tc/esc and screwing with those thing creates huge liability.
