putting my 06 ix back together finally, lucas is going to tune it and try to squeeze 1100 out of her using the 45r from ets's white car, anyway my only concern is the weak points in the stock driveline. i will be shooting for 1.4 and faster 60' times so shes gonna be beaten.....hard, i have a built trans and exedy tripple carbon clutch, what about the rest of the drive line? axles, shafts, rears, stock acd tcase. what needs attention to avoid a failure at the track or a waste of flying lucas to pa/nj and renting a dyno facility for a wkend. i cant afford to have something break on us on the dyno while hes tunning. that would be a major major waste of money and time. so i want to have this car 100 percent ready for him. what should i upgrade and where could i get it done or buy the parts? what about converting the acd to non acd and getting a built tcase? i need all your guys BEST solutions and recomendations. thank you!!!

 

Call shep - get a built non acd t-case (I'm hoping it's one of his trannies you're running also). Driveshaftshop should have everything else you need, axles and driveshaft.

 

Just talk to Shep, as was said.

 

for 1100 whp you should have def bought these things ahead, and yes you are going to need some axles, and a stronger diff and diff bushings, also the tcase needs to be beefed up to the highest stage.

 

Or the same as a 2004 RS. We have yet to lose a T-case in the White Car its just a non ACD with the stock 2005 Helical LSD it came with.

Stock driveline

DSS 900whp rear axles

 

I know AWD runs stock ACD tcases and have never had a problem with them... But like everything else, it only takes one bad launch to break ****.

Good luck. Lucas is a great tuner!

This is the guy you need to talk too

 

Have many people heard/seen of many oem driveshafts fail on our cars???

I've seen in on the DSM's in varying degrees but not so much on the evo's from what i've researched.

It sound slike you have the budget and are planning on a pretty extreme build so i can understand the decision to go to a lighter aftermarket piece but not something to be very concerned about for a dyno tune same thing goes for the axles.

Now once it's done being tuned and at the track anything is suseptible to breakage.......

 

heyy my friend micheal, haha ive talked to you more lately than i have my wife. haha my package will be here tommorow :-)
