I have the DSS carbon fiber.
No increase in NVH. Smooth as butter up to 130 (fastest I have been at the track)
Less slop and definitely quicker acceleration which was the goal of going carbon fiber.
Car has billet vertical links, rear sub frame braces, and Steeda IRS bushings.

The diff lockout kit. I think it was BK045?

When I installed mine I did pick up a little NVH around 70MPH. I have all the IRS goodies and alignment stuff and I know the DS is installed correct so thanks to BMR's suggestion I tried correcting my pinion angle.
I shimmed my trans cross-member down .125 and my NVH is gone. DS is smooth at all speeds.
Thanks BMR for the great advice.

Interesting. Are you on stock motor mounts or lowered?

So carbon fiber driveshafts create less nvh or stays the same as the stock driveshaft?

I would assume a washer would work too?
Did you place this on all four bolts or just the the rear ones?

I washer will work, but you need to consider the bracket's original contact point. You want the area/diameter of the original contact point (pressure point) to be replicated with a spacer as much as possible to avoid the bracket migrating or twisting. Those spacers basically increase the surface area of the "spaced pressure point". A washer - unless it's a big washer - might not offer the same benefit.

Definitely, that's my plan find the proper internal diameter and a large outer diameter.

I'm ready for a company to come out with a solution like that to just slap in there. I'm sure I'm it the only one who will buy.

After having several thousand miles on my DSS cf shaft, I would say the NVH is the same or less. Definitely less slop than stock.
