The idea is that because you've removed the AWD aspect of the box and run a lower weight, you'll take an unreliable part and make it reliable. They basically remove the center diff, lock the two shafts together that ran to it, and drive it off the front diff. Being lightweight and RWD then the box "should live" because it can't load up AWD style and because the rear tires will spin. Claims of them living upto 350hp arn't hard to find. But this is the internet. Land of stawk internal 1500hp 2jz that last 10 years and reliable rotarys. Still no factory LSD in there so you've got 1800lbs.. 300hp, a slick body all doing a one wheel burnout on corner exit.
