Not too much power. It was the wheel hop. I broke mine with near stock power levels. Now much more power and no probs. Diff brace, solid diff mounts and ETB kinda helps. Launching at 7k with et streets= no wheel hop

With a diff brace, i Was doing 7k launches last year with ET streets. 30ish Passes and no problems really. I think all that abuse just weakened the metal so much. Now the first time without the brace it just didnt have that extra support and let go. I have some pics with the diff out. When i took it out, the entire LSD was shaking and rattling, and about 75 tiny gear peices fell out. The case is also cracked all the way around the diff! Pics
