When you start going over 400 things start breaking... You can upgrade the rear end, hell, some people are putting down 600 on stock, but they have custom drive lines and axles... and there is no accounting for how long it will hold up... If you are looking to build it to that extent, I can only assume you plan on launching the car, which will consume your diff over time... many people have blown comptech diff housings at that point... again, this is all speculation until something happens, but having a nearly bulletproof rear end brings great piece of mind... not to mention the options on the rear end conversions include your choice of gearing, aftermarket LSD, and lightened driveshaft... the kit comes with higher hp axles as well...

Thanks for all that info! Can you please tell me where I can find that conversion kit?

Seems like a tough decision between J's Racing and Amuse parts.

The other thing to keep in mind is that the J's performance parts are geared towards NA-setups and haven't even considered FI in the past. I wonder if that will change with Amuse's recent gambit into FI with their new widebody car (i.e. will J's try to one up them in the time attack or just concentrate on the racing they're doing right now).

Just something to think about

Those are some impressive goals you have for your car. I know we'll all be eager to see your buildup!

Didn't realize J's Racing products were for N/A setups. I find it hard to believe they haven't ventured into the FI world. Oh well...we'll see what they come up with.

Thanks for your interest in my goals.

Well its probably better to say that they were designed on an NA car, but thats really only with respect to their power adders The suspension stuff doesn't care about FI or NA)
