Default Jumping all over

Hey all, I have a 05 CIVIC SI, my problem is when i jump off the line the front jumps all over the place. I have the HFP 17 rims with yokohama tires, I was wondering if anyone has this problem and what to do to fix this.

Not sure what "jump off the line" means. I have 03 Si, and it never "jumps all over the place".

check your motor mounts, one might be broken. Or you need inserts for them to stop the engine from rocking its weight on/off the front wheels.

Aparently engine dampers will help for that... i can't remember where you can get them though... most performance parts stores should be able to get them for ya
