Default How much HP & TQ can ?

OK, now much HP & TQ will it take to brake the CV's or Axles? What will be the frist to go or are the tires so small that we will not brake any thing at all.

We have enough already to do it..I believe as soon as there is a Programmer available we will see them start to break, probably axles first, our cars have alot of Torque Management at low speed and shift points, probably to keep all in good working order..lol

So now that a have the NOS hooked up (75hp) shot, this is how I use it: Turn the system off and launch the car as it shifts to 2nd turn on the system let it pull and man dose it pull. I just hope that the axles holds up.

I saw a pont. GXP at the track (all stock I think) and when it launched it broke what looked to be a cast alum half moon piece and flipped grease like out of the axle shaft on the track.

Which track & what color was it, are you sure it was a GXP, not a GTP or Comp-G?? With the TMS unable to be bypassed I find it hard to believe (defective parts aside) last thing about when did this happen?
