OTTP mounts or GM stage kit?

I'm definetly going to get both, but I only have enough money to swing one of them right now. So do you think I should get the mounts now or wait for the GM stage kit. If I get the OTTP mounts I will be getting the Stage 2 set.

Save some money and get the S1 mounts

The LNF actually will have Stage 1.5 if you go with just the Stage 1 mounts from OTTP. Stage 1 rotates the engine, installs a slightly stiffer mount for the front, and installs a spacer for the rear mount. The LNF mounts are already stiffer then the LSJ's. Stage II will add more vibs and just gains you a slightly stiffer rear mount.

Then you have to save less for the GMPP kit if/hwen it comes out.

whoa, you're EXTREMELY CLOSE to me. I live in Aston, PA - 10 minutes away from you! I have yet to see another TC in the area. Care to meet up at some point?

We're having a meet here tonight in Aston if you want to come!

Startin to think getting the stage kit would be better since I don't go to the track and dont launch too often, but would rather be safe than break an axle or trans case. If the stage kit doesnt come out in the first week of july then I will def get the mounts. still want to hear what people think though
