Never mind, called him he said all he could find were Koni's so he went with Monro Sensi-tracs or something like that.
I'm trying to help him build his car but he's IMPATIENT to say the least!!!!!! If he has to wait even 2 days he gets all upset and says its an "omen" that "someone" doesn't want him to build the car. I keep telling him to be patient but I'm statring to lose mine!

I have, he did, he doesn't have time to post or do the research for this. He's actualy paying me to research and build it for him. He ownes his own company and is very busy.
That and he doesn't have the patients for ANY of this.

how easy are the OTTP stage 1 mounts to install? Is that something I'd have to take into the dealership to do? My wheelhop is absolutely terrible in 1st. mods: k&n intake, stage 2, GMPP sport catback exhaust.

From the looks of them and read other people's threads that have done them .....i would say a 3-4 on a scale to 10. From what they have said it's not really hard at all to do the front, the back takes some more time .

Injen CAI, Hahn Header, Hahn or Zzp Dp, Spark plugs for misfires, and a tune from either ottp or trifecta tune.
that will be fine for performance now suspension go with ottp or ttr rear sway and different pads/rotors.

This is a terrible idea. Spend the money on the STAGE 2 ROTATED TRANNY MOUNTS FROM OTTP!! Dont half ass it. These will eliminate wheel hop 100% I know because I run these on a balt with 400whp no hop at all. As far as what this guy is saying is a cheap alternative that doesnt eliminate the wheel hop and the really bad effect to the uerathane inserts andthe TTR engine mounts is the cabin vibrations are ridiculous so if this car is a daily driver you are going to most likely hate it(unless you enjoy that sort of thing!). If you are going to do it then I suggest to do it right ONCE. Also, I am not sure about the statement with the fitment of the Injen intake because I previous had that intake pre-turbo and it fit great w/o and mods. Also, the picture posted above is only 1 of the 2 mounts you get with the stage 2 kit.
It's all personal preference imo. I'm not bashing the stupid mounts. I plan to get them eventually. But on a budget build the prothane mounts work ******* fantastigorically. You're right about one thing, you don't know **** about fitment issues with the intake because there much documented info on the forum about it (*hint* use the search tool). Don't know how to use it? Here, let me help:

I could do this all day. But you what? Nothing beats personal experience. Shall i post pics of my intake? Just because you have a difference of opinion doesn't make another opinion wrong.

i have no wheel hop. Vibrations are nothing worse than a mild massage chair. It goes away after 1000 miles. I spent 50 bucks. You spent upwards of 100. STFU
Ive rode in a car with these mounts and it felt like I was riding in a ******* tank and you feel the need to say "shut the **** up"??? Grow up chump.

Did you read my ******* post you illiterate ****. I previously had the K+N cai system followed by the Injen system and I clearly stated that it was one or the other whereas I had to slightly bend the brake lines. I am not searching the ******* forum to find something I already know because I do all my own work. As far as someone on a budget is concerend then go with the damn mounts but why spend the money on a brand name cai system. ebays sells cai's for $50 no name.. see where I am going here. Grow up and learn how to read.

WHOE, WHOE, WHOE. I asked cause of the reason you just pointed out. A million threads exist and I don't feel like reading thru all of them just to find out what intake works the best and looks good, or about the mounts. I figured I'd ask a question to those people here who have already done it and get fresh input as to what works the best. Don't know why you're hating man, ease up a little. Geez!
