DSS claims no NVH from carbon and warns of some being possible with the aluminum. They also tout improved 60ft from the carbon due to the one piece design and the fact that a carbon shaft will twist 30% more than steel.

So while it may not save as much weight as in other applications it could still be worth something Because of other attributes. I am debating on getting one. I have found them as cheap as 1100. Pretty expensive for a possible tenth
Dang, not as much gains as I thought. That weight savings for the cost would be difficult for my cheap *** self. $600 for 19.5 lbs vs 38 lbs was good to me. The s197 Br0 2 piece also has a lot more "clunk" on decel than I've noticed in 6G 2 pieces, so driveshaft was a must for me.

At the end of the day, removing rotational weight is huge. It's just a matter of how much you want to pay to do so.

Had to go out for a run before my shift, don't try to claim victory because I don't post in a 45 minute window. Everyone can see I've dragged you thru mud on SRK and SVT for the last 6-8months.

Zyborg wanted some instant gratification because his car has a snake on the fender and mines doesn't therefore his is better.

Looks like Zyborg is about to rage quit life.. He's completely lost it. Probably standing in some asylum room in front of a padded wall screaming, "autofaggits autofaggits autofaggits autofaggits."
