What advantages does it hold, if it's the same weight as the Al 1pc?


quite simple.

if it breaks, it become a giant broom sweeper. No damage to the underside or anything else as it is just carbon fiber just spinning around. Meaning new CF DS and you are good to go.


Same can not be said of Al DS.

Weight reduction is actually low on the list of why the switch over to CF DS.

nope you are correct

though his gave the ghost not because of power but because of mfg defect (I think there was a crack or something to that effect).

You are not wrong.

I wouldn't say breaking it does zero damage - looking at the drive shaft tunnel, you can certainly see where it happened. I don't think it does *significant* damage.

Duane is running one on his 7M, so if you are planning on pushing it over 819rwhp you might run into problems.
