Default Differential locker

I not sure which best choose. I just like all of them. Give me some good advise-
DETROIT TRUETRAC
Eaton Lockers
Auburn Lockers

Which people mostly use the locker? Since my g80 I plan to change to locker and same time get 3.90 gear. But I think most people use Detroit Truetrac?

Detroit TruTrac is traction 50/50 to spin the tires? Good for street/strip? Yeah I plan to change to 3.90 cuz of 20" wheels and not sure if it will be ok for turbo since i plan to do turbo project and tt3000 yank stall. I wonder it will be ok for 3.90 gear?

You can do the 3.90 but why bother, just put the 4.10's and be done with it.

I thought if I do 3.90 while I run with 20" wheels kinda heavy and do math will make to 3.73 will be ok for turbo. I just want good accleration and as street/strip bec I do tow sometimes.
