Default Aluminum Driveshafts

What does everyone think about changing out driveshafts in terms of power and durability?

how many people break stock driveshafts? So there is your durability difference there. As far as performance, maybe 1 - 2 rwhp more with aluminum due to the lower rotating mass, as well as some weight saved, which is always a good thing. Driveshafts are usually one of the last mods done to a car, for good reason (cost vs performance).</P>
