Default driveshaft cups

well it seems my torquey little b16 has too much power for my driveshafts to handle. I broke the driver's side tri-pot cup that the end of the driveshaft fits into. It also tweaked the end of the driveshaft. How hard is it to replace the little cup off the transaxle? I am not worried about replacing that driveshaft but I have never had to replace one of those cups. Also, any ideas where i can find a remanufactured driveshaft/cup assembly? I am a little wary of just pulling one off a junkyard car or something. Thanks.

It would be more time and cost effective to just swap out the entire axle assembly. I bought brand new ones off ebay for $80 shipped each. I am weary of remanufactured ones because they reuse the CV joints and they don't test them to see if they are bad.

alright thanks. my engine....not a lot, right now I have a AEM cold air intake, 2 1/2 inch exhaust w/a magniflow muffler, and thats about it. The guy who owned it before me decided it would be a good idea to swap in a b16 engine, I have no idea why. Right now I am kind of stuck debating whether to turbo this engine (expensive) or find a b18 engine and start over on that. We'll see. I'd like to maybe get a header and port the intake and see where that puts me performance wise and then I will decide what to do.
