What's gonna break

[09gt3v]

So I have an 09 GT! 345 rwhp at the end of last year I was cutting 1.59-1.62 60 foots times and I actually bent a lca relocation bracket!(my fault for not welding in)! Current suspension is just bmr lca's, bmr relo's, 1.5 inch drop k springs, adjustable panhard! Car is getting tuned on E85 within the next month or so, which could give me another 10 rwhp or so. What would be your guys advise to buy next and/or upgrade?

Any axle tube support? welding/bracing?
Got a read axle cover with bearing cap support?
What rpm are you launching at btw? nice 60's!

Driveshaft?

 

[lindertw]

what struts/shocks are you running? (not saying those will break, just curious of your setup). IIRC you have 4.10's, but what diff are you running?

+1 on the diff cover with cover with bearing cap support

 

[09gt3v]

Stock shocks, struts and stock carrier, and yes 410s

I've heard the stock driveshaft doesn't break to easy

 

[lindertw]

I think you'll lunch the stock diff before anything else. I think at our power level the stock drive shaft should be fine.

I've seen several mid 12 second cars twist the stock driveshaft like a pretzel .
The stock diff will also go in a short time .

My stock diff gave up the 1 wheel peel after about 35k miles I believe.
I got maybe 15 burnouts/passes on the track out of it.

What one is everyone running

 

[fdjizm]

I'm sure not everyone but lots of people including me have had good luck with the trutrac.
I have the trutrac with a TA performance girdle.
