Blew rearend

If anyone was wondering how strong the (13000 miles) 2014 ss rearend(differential) was... not very strong at all. I don't have official word yet from shop but car definently doesn't move forward. Banging thru gears on the street with 315 nitto motive tires, did a quick 1-2 shift and it let go. So now im looking for a knew rearend if anyone know. Mods are twin turbo, fuel system, and clutch

How much HP are you putting down the the rear tires ? Not really sure that the Chevy Eng's were designing the rear diff for someone with a TT V8 . Kind of like what were you expecting .

I take it that your a M6? The stock axles and diff will take a beating with the auto. I have over 500 passes cutting 1.40 and 1.50 60'
