which came first: the axle or the tranny?

Ok I have read that in order to handle higher torque, the axles on my civic need to be upgraded. So question one is what axles would you reccommend? Second, I am getting more torque from a level 10 PTS upgrade with torque converter for my auto tranny. So second question is should I upgrade the axles or transmission first? I don't think I will be doing them at the same time. And third question is: would a VTEC controller aid in getting more torque as well? Last question: would anything else need to be bolstered at the same time to accommodate this new torque?

BTW- This new PTS upgrade and torque converter promises a whole second better quarter mile time! I have to find out if this is true or not!

Thanks,

DW

no on the vtec controller

anybody else for the other questions?

As he said...no on the vtec controller

and tranny first..then axles.
