I made 423whp and 293 Torque, tranny and diff appeared to be 100% fine. I made lots of 1/4 miles passes and beat the shit out of it on the street daily, not a single problem.

always depends on the launch. I ran a buddys turbo hatch with type r tranny and diff, and rode the clutch from a 7000 launch for about 40-50 feet and cut a 1.59 60ft at almost 500whp so I know they can handle it if you control the launch and don't dump it...

They are boobs, I mean come on, really. Asking why boobs are good is like asking why the sky is blue. They just are!

It's one of those things that you need to experience to answer your question.

were you using slicks? cause if not it doesn't really matter if you have 300 HP or 1000 HP, street tires are gonna spin and you wont be putting much stress on the diff... its when you hook up and launch hard that you break things.

good to know... you MUST have been using slicks to cut a 1.59 60'

That's funny coming from you. I think I've had a little more "experience" than I'd care to *cough*bicycle*cough*.

All my passes were made on Falken Azenis w/ varying air pressures.
