dude.. how u gonna tell me about rice?

idiot.. all my friends are ricers...

i purposely drive a 2.3l mustang...

i hav absolutely no mods to my car that make any type of power..

and i kno ppl wit civics and they suck. the only reason they go anywhere is cuz they weight like 2400 pounds.


i like how he says "just to break it to you" too. thats funny to me

The 7.5 is pretty weak even with a good dif your going to shred your axles or get a hard launch and open the rear dif to find bearing and pinion soup. Any thing over 300hp I would go to an 8.8

What I've seen to be the weak point in the 7.5 are the spider gears. Even the 7.5 tlok units use these same gears. I've heard the 7.5 Truetrac is stronger than the its stock 8.8 tlok counterpart. I'm just wondering if anyone has heard what the truetracs can handle.

yeah spider gears are the worst part of it, but I'm not sure on the truetrac
