Well, my inner driver's-side CV boot has been replaced twice on my 1998 SH if that has anything to do with anything.

I think he is implying that he is loosing traction when accelerating away from a stop.

And axles don't slip.

very true.

when does it "slip"? when you are letting off the clutch in first? if so it's probably your clutch slipping, unless you have an automatic... do you have trouble shifting?

Preludes have the awesome stock axles that will support up to 500whp.
Replacing cv boots was probably due to a rip or hole in the boot on the 5th gen.

I quess your talking about traction when you say slippage? Yes a LSD helps aid in traction, but you can still spin the tires.

Hope this helps

I wonder if he is also implying wheel-hop, he said stop and go from a light... maybe he's talking about a hard launch.... get used to it buddy. Feather that bitch.
