Alright guys if you have followed the other interest thread RCV Performance has directed me back to DSS. I talked with Frank at DSS and he is more then willing to help. Also he said that the pictures that Ryan posted in the old IC were actually Level 0 axles. He was not suprised at how they broke and said he could tell that they were level 0 axles based on the joint design shown.
This IC is for a DSS Level 3.9 axle & hub kit. It will be capable of handling 600hp. The kit will include a larger spline at the hub. On the other end of the shaft that mates with the transmission will be made of a different material. Since it is not possible to increase the size of the spline the material will be upgraded to withstand the torque being transferred. They have had great luck with a company the contracted out of Sweden for a drag car that they have been working with. The car was putting down something like 1200hp and was twisting axles after 15 runs. The new material that they are using from this third party has not twisted and so far has had 36 runs on them. This is the material he would propose for the CV shaft end going into the differential at the trans.
I will post back with specifics (pricing, material details, # of people needed, etc) as Frank is looking into the details and how he wants to construct the setup. I no longer need to send my CV shafts in so the turn around time should be better. The kit should be similar to that of the kits they already offer such as the Honda Civic kit shown below, which is $1299.99
DSS Level 3.9 Axle/Hub kit 2001-2004 Civic Si
And with that lets get a list going...
