Definition of Torque Steer: The annoying tendency of some front-wheel drive vehicles to pull to one side when engine torque is applied. In other words, you step on the gas and the car wants to steer right or left. By redesigning the power train to use equal length half shafts between the transaxle and wheels, the tendency towards torque steer can be greatly reduced. The other cure is to keep off the gas.
basically - goin super fast (from a stop or from boost) and almost goin off the road because it pulls the wheels one way
the b and d series axles are notorious for this...basically because they arent engineered for that kind of power that boost or super high build-ups can produce
