what about the noise?

That's EPP's race car it has the m9 housing, it's a badass car. And if anyone decides to go with a 9" get it from bob @ EPP.

doesnt it all depend on internals as well?

a 9'' isnt naturally gonna be the strongest if its not built.

just go with a moser or strange 12 bolt mami

i got a chance to see the moser m9 display at the nhra finals a couple weeks back...
the worksmanship on it was quite impressive....and very light to say the least...
comes with its own torque arm...its a long style with a relocated trans crossmember mounting point...comes in all sorts of configurations....
also has the option of bolt on axle tubes...for the price its not bad at all...

i ave also heard the midwest fab9 is a very nice piece, but have yet to see one myself.

X2 Couldn't agree more
Best value on the market by far... You can sell your current TQ Arm to offset the inital cost. The Fab 9 weighs the same as a 10 bolt so you dont have to lug around the additional 50-60lbs that a typical 9"/12 bolt has.
