There is no such thing as "torque steer" with rear wheel drive. You likely have a bad motor mount or something along those lines.

You could also have a bad alignment (thrust angle) or mismatched tires (even "identical" tires differ).

yeah, what jwhite said. measure the circumference of your tires with a tape measure or a piece of string. The Torsen LSD can be very sensitive to differences in tire circumferences on the rear. Do you notice a pulling to one side when you accelerate when the car is already moving? If you do, it may be due to a difference in the tires.
