Here's my driveshaft impression. I installed the driveshaft last night and the installation wasn't bad at all. I ran the bolts in to help clear out the loctite which made threading the bolts in very easy. I did a test drive last night and it's what I would call an abnormal drive meaning I had the radio turned off and the exhaust in quiet mode. I was driving at normal highway speeds averaging from 60-80 mph, I did some 3/4 throttle accelerations to about 100 mph, and some normal in town driving. There was no vibration felt and as I had been forewarned there was an increase in road/driveline noise. The noise wasn't terrible but noticeable. On the drive back home I drove with my normal setup radio on and exhaust in track mode. I could still hear a slight road noise but I think my senses were heighten just because I knew a noise was there.
On the drive into work this morning the car drove as smooth as butter. I will say I believe the driveshaft is allowing more power to be sent to the tire because I've notice when I do a 1/2 or 3/4 acceleration the tires spin a lot more.
