WTF!? wheel hop with excelerate 75a mounts

So I installed my mounts a few days ago and expected not to have any wheel hop but its still pretty bad. Anyone know why im am still getting such bad wheel hop?

The more power you have, the increased chance of wheel hop.

These motor mounts don't guarantee total elimination of wheel hop, but they definitely help to minimize it.

a damper would definetly help, but your low pro tires arent helping much either. i have the 75a bushings and running a damper with them.


this is the 4ae nrg damper kit princlybug, me and a few others are running. fits ALL 3rd gen TL's auto or 6spd, without the need of buying anything else. installs easily right in the back of the engine, down to the base of the rear motor mount ive had mine for over 3 years and still love it!


last i checked, they are still going for 125 shipped too

Motor mounts don't eliminate wheel but they do help reduce it. I'm sure your wheel hop has been reduced with the installation of the mounts due to the firmer polyurethane bushings. Also the installation of a damper will also help.

If you really want to make it even stiffer I can send you track bushings but they are designed for 600+ HP cars.

I don't know... you would think stiffer mounts would keep you tires planted. when i think of wheel hop i think about more play in the suspension causing it to travel farther up and down.

Maybe i don't understand but it seems engine mounts wouldn't reduce wheel hop much.
