I was hoping to get some new dyno numbers today. Heres an idle video Steven made on the dyno. The torque tube and driveshaft decided they didnt want to be a part of the car anymore and exited the car on the first pull. I should have some good carnage pics tommorrow.

It was never checked as it was installed the way it came from RPM. The torque tube/drive shaft was a custom job from RPM with the 4L80 conversion, suppossedly good to 1500rwhp. Looks like they built it as strong as the first 4L80, shitty.
Hope you get it all squared out and get some new numbers!!Good luck

Ouch sucks to hear about the breakage! Hopefully they fix it right this time instead of it breaking with less power then what they claim it's good for. That's complete and utter bullshit in my opinion. They better stand behind their product!

in all fairness though RC, how many track passes and dyno pulls at over 1000whp did they survive? def a sweet car, and i do agree with Powell, never seen it in person but i hopw to at tx2k10.
