How badly worn is the rear diff, rear diff mounts, tranny, tranny mounts etc? I've heard of a lot of people doing damn near 500 on stock equipment, but only when the mounts are up to speed. My guess is yuo'd break them long before the rear diff and tranny if they're in good shape.

/this is all speculation, I don't own a boosted car... yet....

If you're worried about breaking parts, you shouldn't be (drag) racing...
