Well i'll sacrifice a little torue for the sound my car makes, evertime im getting gas, people walk up and tell me my car sounds rowdy.

Anyway, i know of many people laucnhing on stock axles with slicks, i was launching on e.t streets, the reason i drop it so high is because of the crap gears i have, i like to get a little spin so it doesnt bogg, i only dump that high when im going for a best e.t or if i have a grudge with the ricer next to me really i think the axles are not the problem, its the old trusty T-5, my clutch is new, but i smelled it a couple times at the topend, also my throwout bearing is making the most annoying noise now, but that happened ever since i drove through some high water, i dont blame that on racing.

just keep the slicks to a 26x8.5 and you should be alright, i know of a guy that ran several passes on a low 10 sec car with stock axles, however he couldnt find a t-5, or tremec that could take 20+ pounds of boost, and hold together.
