A girl with a turbo... where have u been all my life?[sm=smiley2.gif]

J/K sweet ride, i'm liking the black on black. How many lbs. of boost are you running?

 

Sorry to disappoint you. That's NOT me in the pix. It's my gal.

Currently I am pushing 8 lbs. but have a terrible time hooking up at the light.

 

Hahaha, I feel like an idiot. Your a lucky man.

Do you have a manual tranny? If so you should look into some polyurethane motor mounts, it will help with thhe weight transfer. That help me out alot! Its a cheap upgrade too, it cost me like $30, but was a bitch to put in.

 

Yes I'm manual - is there anything else? JK

I had some guy tell me to put on polyurethane motor mounts and I just thought he was on something. So it really make that big of a diff? I do see my shifter move like 2 inches when I'm on it. It sure is a lot cheaper then LSD.

SOLD I'll do it. Can't hurt either way

 

When I would get on it off the line it would kinda "bounce" for like 3-4 seconds looking for grip. After the motor mounts, it would grab almost instantly, also your first to second shift is much smoother and easier to hit.

Mine are from "energy suspension"

 

That is one of my problems - the bouncing. The other is I can only launch at 3K or I just sit and spin. This is why I was thinking of the LSD. But I was told the mounts would fix this problem as well, but I just don't see how. Help yes, but solve ???

But for 30 bucks or so and some time to fix the wheel hop and (maybe) the wheel spin. It's worth the shot.

Thanks for your input. Knowing you for the past 5 minutes has cost me 30 bucks and a Saturday morning. Yeah, thanks a lot. J/K

For real - thanks!

 

you'll cuss at me while your installing them, but you'll thank me later that day[sm=smiley2.gif]

 

Welcome.....that's a good lookin ride you got there.

 

nice and nicer. sounds like a sweet set up
