TurboTech Racing Solid Mount Review

Well this thread is aimed for people who hate wheel hop and are thinking about getting the Turbo Tech Racing Solid Engine mount.

First off now that a bunch of people have gotten their solid mounts installed, hopefully they can post here letting people know how they like them.

when posting about your mounts please include:
1. Easy of installation
2. Wheel hope gone or not
3. Vibrations
4. Any other helpful information.

Needs to be moved...because other Cobalts run these, and others get wheel hop as well...


1. Easy as hell...I can put it on in about 5 minutes...make sure you have the right sized allen wrenches or you will scratch the hell out of your valve cover. Also it doesn't hurt to have a piece of wood in between the notch in the valve cover and the inner wheel well under the hood...LNF people have (what I believe) fuel lines in the way that have to be moved...LE5, L61, LNF will all have to take the stock airbox out to do this as well.

2. Wheel hop is long gone, but with the LNF's TC, it is hard to get anyways. On my LE5 I did trans inserts as well and bye bye wheel hop.

3. This thing does not vibrate no where near as bad as the trans bushings. You can barely tell it is there, A/C on or off.

4. Read #1

Oh I forgot.

Wheel hop only happens on SS/SC's


This part affects all trims the same.

All trims can experience wheel hop.

Did I ever say wheel hop only effects SS/SC's? no. Shame on you. I just wanted to et opinions from those who had ss/sc's. Thank you have a nice day.

Go ***** out or not at all...if you swap the top mount change the tranny mounts or you're going to get more stress on those mounts which you DONT want.
