Whats it take to destroy a 01 GT rear end......

[bouncer18]

3 pounds of boost and 6,000 rpm....


the result is a definitivie catastrophic failure of the left axle in many many pieces of various shape and size and spider gears dont quite resemble a gear.....

but hey, the cover is in great shape and i needed an excuse to replace the seals!



before it exploded it went
1.61 60'
11.39 @ 121

then on the short run it went
1.49 60'

Did you use a predator or SCT to tune your car?

SCT has a nice 2-step.
