How much HP can out rearends handle?
This is kinda important for me to know now as I'm in the middle of a build and I need to know how much horsepower and torque can our rear ends take, I ideally would like to upgrade to a limited slip diff but have read that they are a waist for the most part on work up to 5-10 mph. Is there a rear end of another model I can somewhat easily install onto our cars without redoing the suspension??? Is there a dude that can give me the info?
And Thanx in advance!!

According to Roman at Turbobandit....if you dont do hard launches upto 600hp......if you want to do hard launches with a lot of HP then you need transmission and rear end swap probably from V8 model or purpose built.
