Darryl, Nate, Marcus, and anybody else with a high HP drag DSM: this is a thread for you.
I'm wanting to know about when to expect the stock transfer case to start exploding. Now that I'm brewing a pot of means for the higher HP numbers, I'm thinking the transfer case will be the one weak link in my setup. For right now, it's just a 14B car but by the end of the summer, it will have a 400hp capable turbocharger on it. More than likely, it won't really make 400hp on the stock motor, Supra SMIC, ACT 2600, street tires, and a 2-step, but I'm hoping for something over the 300 mark at least. I've thought about cryotreating it or something of the like. Opinions, concerns, and questions welcome. Thanks. -------------------- "I hear he tunes the space shuttle also...and that thing is fast"

As its been said transfer case life depends on how the car is launched. If you can avoid shocking the drivetrain and wheel hop it should be fine. Our fastest time 9.48 and 60' 1.41 was actually with the stock transfer case and drive shaft. After that we made more power and the output shaft or the yoke would break when grabbing second gear if the track was sticky.
Back in the day with the red car I launched at 4500-5000 rpms reving the engine versus holding the engine at an rpm. Ran the car to 11.50 without a transfer case mishap. -------------------- |
