Under boost from the TII engine, the NA drivetrain's week point is usually the Universal Joints in the driveshaft. After that the NA transmission main drive gear teeth tend to bend/brake from continous usage of the TII's engine's 200+ ft-lbs of torque.

I think GTU-S diff can probably take at least 180-200 ft-lbs.. but if you're doing launches you'll want the TII rear diff, larger bushings, and larger axel halves.
