Default Neutral Drops

About to do the T5 swap soon, just wondering has anyone done some hard neutral drops with their AODs? I wonder how much abuse one can take. I think I might get a video camera and tape the aftermath once I get all my new parts together. What are your opinions? Tire spin or runaway trans? Im thinkin around 4-5k rpms. []

Oh, ok. That definitely sounds like it would mess something up. They way I pictured it was having it in drive then just put it in neutral. I did that in the car I was driving before I got the 5.0 on accident and it didn't mess anything up, that's why I was confused.
