Default Obx and innovative axles?

I need advice or just someone to tell me if these axles are any good. I have a turbo b series building to get around 450whp. Came across the obx axles which are rated at 1000whp and the innovative which are rated at 800whp. I know it's kinda an overkill but I want something that I wouldn't have to replace again if I wand to build a more powerful motor. Both are around 800 bucks, leaning towards the innovative only because I have innovative mounts. Any advice is appreciated

i dont know much about the obx axles but i know that innovative axles are made in the USA with great metal and also the innovative axles are made for and even swap(you dont have to change the spindle from the hub) which means your not adding wait to the drivetrain these axles are proven

i know of alot of people on stock axles making anywhere from 160whp to 850whp and never broke a axle and they have years upon years on the same axles. Its just ur driving style and dont side step at the track.

I've been through 2 sets of stock axles. It's hard to beleive anyone launching with that much hp for so long and not snapping axles.

It depends a lot on the way the driver launches the car too. The axles have to be preloaded if you want them to last. Either way though, the Innovative Axles are top notch!

The axle seal will stop the leak, but it will not fix the vibration.
