Default What ET is this Spohn Torque Arm rated to?

Does anybody know what this Spohn Torque Arm is rated to ET wise? I know BMR has one thats good to 11.00 because it is mounted to the tailshaft of the trans and then they have their extreme one which is for faster cars. Whats this one rated to the website doesnt say?

That torque arm could handle more than what 95% of us could throw at it. It will be much better than any torque arm that is mounted to the tailshaft of the transmission. I think BMR's 'rating' probably just comes from the fact that they've run that torque arm on a car going around 11.00 and it didn't break.

Well I guess you're one of the 5% then! In that case, you should probably call them to be sure.
