Re: (corgiat)
DSM's are 2.0 also....And they do have drivetrain problems more so I think. Well at least mine did. I had a fwd DSM and in about a year I went through 2 clutches, 1 tranny and 1 axle. I didnt even drive it hard That car was a moneypit, but it was quick.

Re: i got owned (fkncivic)
i was in the car with him..... it was kinda funny to feel the car shoot towards my side. There was no doubt about it at first that it was something in the drivetrain. Not to mention hes missing that mount and his car does have some decent torque and his clutch/flywheel combo are pretty nice also so that helps snap the axels. Cant wait to see how much **** brakes when he gets some boost!!!
and yes his car has been on a flatbed more times than my dsm could ever dream about, and to add to the mix its been because of problems with the drivetrain ever single time! hahahaha B20 ownes JOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Re: i got owned (BigBADGSX)
I would look more into why you are breaking axles, most people don't break axles until around the 250HP (didn't check what you were running at) but usually excessive wheel hop and **** like that will cause premature wear on the axles.

Re: (taqman15)
I've had the same problem man. I just bought a set of Napa axles with a lifetime warranty and everytime they break I get a new set. It's something to do with the B20 and a heavy clutch. I have a B20 w/ a ITR tranny w/ a Clutchmasters Stage 4 clutch and it happens to me.
