8.8 Rear end question

[iwannagofast]

How much torque can a stock 8.8 with 3.27 gear and axle rods handle?

[SimplyOrange]

not sure of exact torque,what are you planning on making, i know it will hold 400ft/lbs for sure

Ive heard around 550 ft lbs of torque. At least thats what this shop by me told me.

Damn WTF. i snaped and axle and did a ton of damage at the track last friday and i only got it putting down 325wtq

I ordered the parts to up my boost from 3.5 psi to 9 psi and I asked if I would be making too much power to the 8.8 and I was told that I really don't even need to worry about it so I'm not sure what your problem was. Where did your car give out? Was it in the diff or one of the axles itself?

You have a problem with your rear end.

the left axle and the broken piece of axle twisted into the carrier, so axle and carrier is all sorts of jacked up
