I'd need you and Bert to agree to tie your right hands behind your back to have small chance.

Thanks again for the y pipe!

Any gains from it?

128mph on high boost I assume? When I do decide to run, you'll see vids and a post I really have no f'ing clue what it will do because we havent seen many guys at 500+whp run, not much to compare to.

so far from the people I've seen run with 500-550whp TT was around 11.3ish sec on drag radials. I think most were usually pretty good drivers, but probably not near pro level

I dunno when I'll run this car, maybe not this season as I have next 2 weekends planned and after that we're in November and nobody can hook up. If I had DSS Stage 5's Id go Friday...Im just not prepared to break this thing after 1 month of having it back

Remember you know that people are breaking the level 5 axles also...The weak part isn't just the axle...and he broke it with less power than you..And yea 128mph on high boost...

Are there any side by side pics of stock axles and the LVL 5 ones? I just want to see the difference.

This is the only pic of 350Z axles that I could find.

I used an obscure, not-so-popular search engine called "Google".

LOL^^

Todd, I have never seen a side by side pic. The axle stubs are much thicker, beefier units. Same on Level 2 as on level 5. Stock inner and outter joints on Level 2though, and stock inners on Level 5's with better outter cv joints. You'd think for the $$$ the Level 5's would be all beefed up...I saw somebody break Dss 5's@ MIR, but I think it was driver error than anything else.

If LVL 5's are the best thing out as of yet....screw it, slap those puppies on there and call it a day.

Hey...we all have our talents, no? After all, you drive a snake. The question is...do you have one?

LOL...thanks, though. It turns out that the original mid pipe that I received from "shop not named here" was a y-pipe from a G35. I worked with R Stempler Nissan near me to work out my issues.

Bigbri-

I respect everything you've done on this site. My money is on Alberto, bro.
