Driveshaft and axleshaft question for FI

Hello,

As my target goes up to 700~800hp, I am concerning on the shaft during drag race with A8.

At first, I am planning to change the driveshift.
My question is

1. Do I need to change the axleshifts , too?
2. I am considering DSS Chromoly Driveshaft
As I understand, it dosen't have rubber couplers.
Any issue with it while daily driving? Like shifting shock?

Lastly, are there anyone who get A8 reinforced?
Even , at 650hp, I can see slight slip on A8.

Are you on a slick? Do you have a converter? Plenty of guys have gone 1.4s and 1.3s in the 60". Depends on how hard you hit the tires out of the hole.

Steven at 42autosports does a mild build and helps with programming of the 8l90e. He adds some clutches to a couple of the clutch packs and modifies the valve body. I know he is working on getting some upgraded clutch material.

These transmissions are really strong stock. I would expect it to last a long time at 650hp and probably wouldn’t bother with a build even at your higher goals at least until it fails.
