I have the Verus CF driveshaft. Never driven with it installed, but it's way lighter. I wouldn't buy it to go faster, I'd buy it to make things smoother and add a little first gear acceleration.

Also, any car will blow up if supporting mods are not done correctly or at all. That's not a surprise to anyone that most of them blow up; people think the turbo is the expensive part, but it's not. If you spend 5 hours installing a turbo kit, but don't want to spend 30 hours supporting it with a perfected tune, AND 200 hours researching supporting mods, I would stay NA.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with NA, it's far less trouble, less grey hair, less crying. Just less acceleration
