beefing up torsen rear

hey guys.... im about to get a 50,000 mile ls1 rear and it has that cool torsen in it... i was wondering what are some things i can do to beef up the rear abit.... my car is not a racer by any means and will hardly ever see the track...its just a fun daily driver and i just want it to last a long time... i will have under 380whp and i will always be running street tires and im running a auto so i should have ALOT less than than a similar car with slicks and a manual....

Re: beefing up torsen rear

It doesn't really sound like you need to beef it up just change the oil as recommended. There is also a sticky on the trans board about beefing up the 10 bolt. Welding, braces etc. etc.
