Isn't the Aluminum driveshaft supposed to be stronger than the stock unit? I also heard that the carbon fiber driveshaft isn't worth the money for the small weight change from Aluminum.

Dont go aluminum drive shaft. It might just break. Go carbon fiber.

Id save the money toward something more expensive that you will actually notice.

carbon fiber is stronger than aluminum. And for a bolton drive shaft that spins by forces of torque and rotation they have a more likely hood to break the fast you spin it. How do I know? Well everyone knows that carbon fiber is lighter and stronger than aluminum and my girlfriends brother has a 5.0 and broke his drive shaft when launching. It was an aluminum one.
