Which will stop wheel hop more motor mounts or tranny mounts ?
how hard are tranny mounts to install ?

 

Go with the tranny mounts. There cheap and work well. I got mine from www.cobaltperformanceparts.com when I had the balt. One of the best mods I did.

 

The front tranny mount is a piece of cake to do. I've heard that the rear one can be a pain, but I can't imagine it being too hard.

 

experience, and your right foot are by FAR the best traction mods.

 

Well you can buy the motor mounts and get the tranny mounts for like 40 bucks more at ttr. I dont know how hard they are to install tho.

 

Its not that hard. Its just 3 more bolts to take out.

 

x2

i dont know how well they stopped my wheel hop but by far one of my favorite mods, greatly improves your shift response

 

It has been shown also that the motor mount is over rated unless you are pushing some high Hp. The cost of the tranny mounts are cheap and they eliminate the wheel hop better then the motor mount.

 

running 13.89 already with airfilter and muffler (100 octane)
think i drive good enough

 

i think Traction Bars and front motor mount are the best.at lease for me.

 

ok thank you.... lookin forward to low 13s after mounts injectors and a tune

 

There are 3 mounts total that you can stiffen up.

2 transmission and 1 engine.

2 Tranny bushings are really cheaper ~$50.00 the engine Mount is ~$200.00

If you get a complete set through us, when you purchase the engine mount, you can get the tranny bushings for only $29.99

 

not an easy install, not just a little more vibrations, took me an hour and i was a mechanic untill two weeks ago. My new nickname for the car is the vibrator. (My fiance calls it foreplay)

talking about tranny mounts, sry...

 

The mounts will break in. I honestly dont think the Motor mount does a whole lot. Go with the two tranny mounts and you wont be disappointed.

 

not happening unless you are pullied...


anyway i have had experience with all and from my experience control arm bushings are he most effective wheel hop reducer pair them with tranny bushings and you are pretty good.

 

you dont think i could get low 13s with zero wheel hop .... the injectors and tune are give me alot more power ( or should i get the CA stage one with only a pulley and tune)

 

what injectors are you using?

unless the injectors your using now are having trouble doing the job....new injectors are going to give you 0 power.

if your on the stock tune, im sure a good tune can net you a few ponies though.
but nothing will bump up your power like a lb or 2 of extra boost.

 

when i say new injectors im talkin about gettin gm stage 1.....
what do you guys think about the bwoody traction bars ?

 

I've got the Bwoody engine and tranny mounts... personally the tranny mount is doing the most for me. The engine mount just looks good under the hood... so it's saying.

I'd stay away from the traction bars... they hang down under the car so they can scrape... plus you need to re-grease them often so they don't creak and make your car sound like junk.

 

I will let you know how my set up goes. Will be done with all my installs by the end of the month.

Stock From Factory: 14.2 @ 100mph

Old Mods: GMP Stage II, GMP Touring Exhaust, Ingall's ETD, Injen CAI = 13.6 @ 107mph

New Mods: B&M Short Throw, GMP manifold, ZZP DP with high flow cat, TTR Engine Mount, TTR Front/Back Tranny Mounts, BFG DRs, Exedy Clutch/flywheel, CA H/E, GMP Dual Pass, Nate's 2.9 pulley = ? unknown

 

come on now raine, theres nothing wrong with traction bars. im actually making me a set myself. it should be all ready by tomorrow if i get the rest of my parts in. ill let you drive it when i get it all put together and on the car and adjusted properly. its all personal though, if you dont care about vibrations get all mounts, if you do care about vibrations get traction bars and polyurethane control arm bushings. if your like me and want to go all out get everything i listed above and it will be an awesome car.

 

best traction mod, control of your right foot.

 

2.12 60' 13.89@103.2 mph thats on 100 octane (car ran like **** for a few days later afterwards tho) is my best time car was also gutted just one seat and no speakers or spare
14.19 @ 101.3 mph without the 100 octane and no track prep

you also have to keep in mind im running at sea level, the humidity is high but when its cold the car is amazing

 

ok so its in agreement that tranny mounts will pretty much be my best bet ?

 

springs and good tires are ur best traction mods

also it is a piece of cake to change them...just take ur sweet time..i changed mine in under 30min,and that was while i was playin around with my lil bro..need any help just pm me a message and ill answer ur question
