Default how many w/stock rear & nitrous

I was wondering if the rear end would hold up to 100 dry shot on a otherwise basicallystock m6 car?
Are alot of you running the stock rear end?

just broke mine.
I was spraying 150 shot with Vig 3000 and slicks and got MANY passes out of it. You will be fine <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> 12 bolt on the way for me but until then <img border="0" alt="[Truck]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_truck.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

To be honest with you its a crap shoot with our rears. I broke one 10bolt N/A with my stock internal M6. I have made a couple N20 passes aswell with the same stock 10bolt since I can't afford a 12bolt just yet. It will also depend on what tires your going to be running, how hard you plan on launching etc. Giver hell, enjoy , and put some $$$$ for a rear just incase. Thats the best advice I can give you. Cammin Beast thats with a 100shot correct?

The a4 cars are nice to the rear end the torque converter is like a big cushin. If you get the clutch to grab and tires to hook there is no cushin. That is also true with each shift with the m6. If you get wheel hop get out of the throttle or it will be junk real soon. I have seen pinions sheared off, zexel diffs explode and axles snap and it is all more comin in the m6. Good luck with it.

Keep your Saint Michael around your neck and you'll be fine. For real, the A4's are much kinder to the rear. Heard a lot of the rears going out are M6 users. Good Luck.

I've got about 15 bottles through mine on an M6. I launch it on ET streets at about 4k and juice it as soon as I can in first gear.

However, I live in Utah, about 4500 above. Here my car only makes about 240 RWHP off the giggle gas so that comes into play.

From what I've been told, as long as you don't spray off the line, you should be in good shape.

Now ... "good shape" means that there's just as much chance of the rear blowing out on or off the juice because they really are the weak link in our cars.
