Has anyone done a before and after dyno of the 1 piece cf shaft yet?

Just broke a bearing casing. Looking at the 600HP axles. PM sent.

Any details on NVH compared to stock? Are there any negatives we should expect?

NVH like some others have stated but I'd like to add that it probably had a lot to do with engineering and cost. Meaning its easier and cheaper to engineer a two piece steel driveshaft vs a one piece aluminum/carbon and also tunnel space probably was part of the equation too.

What kind of warranty do these have?

Just got ours in for the shop car not too long ago. Had to give it the treatment in the photo room.

This carbon version is so light...tough to perceive unless you are actually holding it.
