Hello! I was just wondering, I hear a lot about the back end not being able to handle the LS power. I was just wanting to know what exactly breaks back there?

Maybe higher HP examples or people who are harder on their cars have differing experiences.

But seriously, I've heard that too but my experience has been different. The original 944 trans did just fine with my 400hp LS1. I swapped it out for a turbo trans with LSD and it's been fine too. I drive my car hard on the track but do my best to avoid hard launches and wheel spin.

I think the ring and pinion is the weak point in the NA transmissions. I've heard people break those even with the NA 944 engine on a hard launch.
