I wasn't racing it every weekend. LOL. Yes it was factory no girdle extra bracing or anything special. It didn't catastrophically fail either. Rear lasted a good bit as I DD'd the car at 640 RWHP for a couple years putting the slicks on with a 76mm STS kit, then swapped to the front mount.
Time line went like this. Stock up to 50K miles,
heads/cam/exhuast 430 RWHP from 50K to 77K motor blew up.
Went FI with STS kit 77K to 98K with the stock rear staying together.
(Wish I would have listened to David MIGHTYMOUSE when he told me it was a bad idea LOL, This was when MM2 got into the wall. Nothing but problems with that kit, required weekly maintenance to keep it going. Oil problems, turbo dragging, catback twisting and breaking, boost leaks, just no good. David was right)
98K swapped to S60/ S480 front mount setup. Stock rear was a trooper for me.

A little birdy told me this car made 755/655 today shutting it down at 6000rpm on Tick Performance's dyno.
I was also told that pull was good for the King of the Dyno Shootout win and $500+ cash!!!
Congratulations Stephen!
Now we just need to get you a 9", a built trans and some low 6 second passes on slicks.

Birdy was right Martin lol lol.
Little less than 18 psi I believe. Dyno doesn't load like the street. Was set for 18 psi on street pull. Probably only made 16 or so on Dyno. Jonathan said he wasnt sure he was just watching my wideband. Lol. I'm happy either way. Very happy.

Most people break the stock rear after changing to lower gears like 4.10's etc.. My factory rear with 3.42 m6 gears went 10.17@134mph before I decided it needed to be upgraded because it was whining and I wasn't spending anymore money on it. I also raced it for a couple years like that running mid 11's on motor and mid to low. 10's on n20 but this was with an auto that is more forgiving. Good luck
