The factory shaft is designed a certain length to suit the upper and lower control arm length through the full range of suspension travel.
The only reason anyone would need extended cv shafts is if they fitted replacenent upper and lower control arms to suit that extra length.....like in a wide travel kit such as total chaos or the like. Any other reason is just a Wank, to fool you from parting with your hard earned cash.
also imo genuine cv's still seen to be the strongest and best wearing,(cheap secondhand from wreckers) unless u wanted to part some cash to rcv cv's. but then you loose the week point in your driveline and will do diff's rather than cv's.
