Shame on you Joe, for posting such false and especially misleading information on such a tech savvy forum.
We all know our cars are equipped with a delicate independent rear suspension, and trying to retrofit what is obviously a bulky live axle setup would upset the weight distribution to say the least.

Ha!
I'd never heard of such a thing before, but apparently it did exist, for a brief time, in the 1960s. Prior to the incarceration of its founder, Turbonique made a variety of n-propyl nitrate-fueled rocket / jet devices. Some were of the direct-thrust variety, others were shaft-driven.
This specific axle carrier is, well, it's exactly what it looks like. A diff housing with a jet engine bolted to it. A one-way clutch allowed the jet to apply approximately 1,000 HP directly to the pinion gear. It had precisely one throttle setting: "on."
They also produced turbine-driven superchargers, as well as a go-kart which clocked a 6 second quarter mile.
A six second quarter mile.
In a go-kart.
Needless to say, literally every single device ever made by the company is completely banned in all known forms of motorsport.
