ORIGINAL: Sherwood06GT

BMR Carbon Fiber driveshaft, rated to 1000hp. They 'claim' a 15hp increase. Spendy, but it only weighs 20.3 lbs.

Mine is on order.
I wouldn't bother with the CF driveshaft. The Powerhouse aluminum driveshaft is lighter (mine weighed 18.9 lbs) and it is less expensive!

The only advantage to the CF shaft is it can handle more HP than the aluminum shaft, but I doubt you'll be throwing 1000 HP at your shaft anytime soon. Also, if the CF shaft breaks it will turn into string, whereas if you break a metal shaft it can turn into shrapnel (Better have your safety loops)

...but performance wise the aluminum is actually better.
