Your ECU will limit the torque to stop from "destructive" things from happening. If you remove it, youll let your engine use ALL of its power
Destructive things by done through "aggressive driving"

With the larger tensioner pulley slight modification is required for your tensioner bracket. It needs to be ground down in order to not rub. Some people are willing to do this to save the extra money others like the ease of the stage 2 belt.
As far as the axle breaking stuff, as long as you don't catch hop and stay in it you are fine. Altough if you are a very agressive driver and like to take off fast it may be safer the other way

I removed my tq man. on my personal car and many people who get the stage kit do. I have not heard of anyone snapping a axle and quite a few have been to the track with them. Not to say it can't or won't happen. If you have a fear of it keep it on then

^x2...everyone I know has it off. It's not like your automatically going to break something if you take it off. Just be careful and try to get some supporting mods that eliminate wheel hop...ie. rotated mounts, engine mount, blah blah blah
