Are you going to get a standard tailshaft, or have a stronger item made?Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSV_LS1 Member 303 Member For: 20y 11m 21d Gender: Male Posted 29/06/08 07:45 AM Author Share Posted 29/06/08 07:45 AM The car makes 410rwkw on the race tune and the car felt fine on the drive to the track.Unfortunately I didn't really think my launch through. Too much boost and a really sticky track is a baad idea.I will be putting a stocker back in as I don't intend to put that much stress through it again lol.I'll be keeping one piece as a memento. May even frame it and hang it somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
