Hello,

Looking for advice on a driveshaft for my '15 GT with a 6R80. I'm planning on ordering one next week. QA1 Carbon Fiber vs DSS Carbon Fiber vs Dynotech Aluminum? What if any is the weight difference? Any special features of either of these over the other?

Full bolt ons.

Thank you in advance

Anything with wheels
Qa1 video on their carbon ds was pretty sick but the price tag is over double versus an aluminum piece. I’ll be ordering a shaftmaster aluminum ds soon for a little over $600 shipped.

The Shaftmaster is the lightest aluminum, carbon fiber is more expensive but stronger & lighter still. Bump.

I think DSS CF is like 22lbs, doesn’t seem lighter than shaftmasters alum.

I got the shaftmasters mixed up with Dynotech I guess. I research so much my thoughts run together. Lot's of info to disseminate.
