try the tranny mount probly tied with the CAB for the single best thing to eliminate wheel hop.

I use the same exact setup with the same results. I still got too much hop with just the front trans mount and motor mount so I added the CABs. I can romp on it at any speed in first and never any hop. If you bog it it will rattle the crap out of you if you step on it hard but you can accelerate without horrible vibrations if you are soft on the peddle( keep it in vacuum) any questions with this setup feel free to ask.

PS i drive 70-100 miles a day 4-5 times a week for work and school and the vibes are not unbearable even when in traffic, just not as comfortable as stock.

Yep. For me I can live with it. It seems to have softened a tad since the install.

IMO the tranny mount causes ALMOST all the vibes. I did the motor mount and it was almost like it was still stock. the tranny mount was next and that cause a nice amount of vibes and the next day i did the CABs and there was very little difference between tranny mount and tranny with CABs

totally agree. There are enough vibes for someone that gets into the car will wonder whats going on. I'm on my 2nd week with mounts and CAB and the vibes aren't that noticable unless ur below 2K rpms.

I've got them in my Red Line but haven't checked to see if they stop the wheel hop yet. Today is the first time my car has seen boost in over 3 weeks and how does she handle it? Throws the P0170 code 6 times. My bushings have been installed for over 3 weeks and haven't fallen out yet, so hopefully Dan's problem doesn't show up on my car. It probably will though since my Red Line likes to fight me every step of the way.

I did a test tonight on the way home tonight. Off the line I gave the car about half throttle and she started to hop, just like before the cabs.

Well, I jumped the gun a little bit. The first few times I launched the car I still got bad wheel hop but now it is almost nonexsistent. Just wheel spin and a little bit of hop but no where near what it was before. Maybe they needed to break in or something, I don't know.
