the only real benefit of the carbon over aluminum is being more safeproof and kudo points to say you got a carbon one. also the carbon driveshaft absorbs all of that vibration better for a better feel compared to an aluminum.

but for the price of the aluminum it simply can be beat

Nice!!! PR-G!!! Do you think there will be a NA dyno within a week or two? So far the only dynos are on boosted cars.

The turbo G gained 20+hp only changing out the shaft. The car was baselined, shaft installed, and dynoed again in 2hrs same day.

Gzilla gained 60hp the only difference with his it wasn't same day don't know the correction factor and weather conditions.

Hills told me the correction factor was the same and almost no change in weather when they did the G35 since it's cold here.

I'm curious of the torque rating these can handle. The number's sound good but how much boost and torque were these guys pushing? I put down 500 ftlbs, which isn't too much but I want to make sure these will hold it.

Question: how difficult is the install? Thinking about getting on of these for my JWT TT G35(actually, the Z1 Motorsports aluminum one, for the price), but I like to do most of the work on my G myself.

Any ideas from anyone who has either done the install themselves, or at least how long the shop took to do it?

it takes longer to get your exhaust out of the way then it does to uninstall your OEM shaft and install the 1pc.

I've installed two seperate exhausts on my G, so I think I can handle that, then. Thanks.
