Around 300 rwhp the stock CV joints become a seriously weak link.
Many owners have shattered them.
ATS Racing (atsracing.net) makes a chromoly CV joint upgrade and it is well worth the money.

I've been racing on the stock axles and the ATS CVs with well over 500 rwhp.
Last year, on am incredibly hard drag launch I shattered the inner-splines of the stock axle inside the differential. I was way to low on tire pressure and had too much grip.
