i plan on swapping a r200 diff when mine takes a crap, i think i can get a local shop to fab it up alot cheaper than the full blown kit. Plus side is they can take a beating and they are cheap as dirt to replace.

 

I think you're confused. 8.8 or R200?

 

r200, i meant to say inlinepro. heres the kit, expensive though. thats why i think i can get one custom made for alot cheaper

Yeah that's why i held off; mounts can be fabricated for alot less, r200 is cheap as hell and can take serious beatings

 

yea i ran one in a 240 that i used to drift with and never had any issues. very stout and you can get replacements for about a buck

 

and good luck finding a used SOS. They rarely pop up used and I think that's in part to how good of a kit they make. Everyone I know that's had one keeps it.

 

I had a dream that I was at 1,000rwhp and it held up just fine

seriously tho, I'm only at 300 but plan to hit 400 soon, I have 105k miles on my car, been SC'ed for over 60k, still on oem diff,trans and clutch. I don't think a day goes by that I don't push and hit 9k in 1st 2nd and 3rd lol. It has taken the abuse very well. I know the clutch will need replacing when I get more power, but I think and hope everything else will hold up fine, it's all on how you drive. I never launch and I never downshift hard(i.e 6th to 3rd) If I plan to run someone I ease into the optimum gear and go.

 

^What supercharger are you running if I might ask?

 

Competch Novi 1000, I know I'll be maxing it out to get 400.

 

Still good to see it's help up over that many miles. I'd love a SOS setup but they are pricey and a rarity to find used. I've seen some Vortech and Comptech setups pop up for reasonable prices so if I do decide to go SC I might end up looking at one of them.
