Not only did it work out good.  That sumbitch sounds like a formula one race car when he lights it up.  Nice job Faber you should be proud of that one. 

If I believe I cannot do something it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe that I can, then I acquire the ability to do it , even if I didn't have it at the beginning.

Well,the Glamis trip finally found the weak spot in the 091 .From the start I had my concerns about the stock VW input shaft. I had been pretty much convinced I may have broken the super diff but fortunately that is not the case. My original feeling was correct as the pics show. I think the issue was my voodoo heat treating. Might also be a material issue or a combination of the both. At any rate,I'm calling Weddle to see if there is a possibility of sourcing the 300M ones they sell before heat treat, modifying it for this app and then sending it back to them for heat treat with their standard HT run of shafts. Should solve this issue. If I can't get that done I'll have to take a different route. Bottom line is that this is a fixable issue.

Yep, that's easily fixable carnage. 8) 8) 8)


IMO, some people owe you an apology about the 091 holding up to a busa. ;) ;) ;)
