wait, on the ebay, shows your the winning bidder..

so your wanting to sell it more than what the guy is asking for with shipping?? since the winning bid + shipping = 97.95. why the extra $$$???

you send a letter. it covers your ass for engine failure. that is more than enough. then GM can go after the dealer and you get a new motor with no hassles. what more do you want. likely nothing happened to the motor for one oil change any way IMO. let GM decide the dealers fate.

JP my experience stems from seeing videos of the cobalt in a braking test slow motion which shows control arm deflection, the fact I had only B-Woody Bars that totally eliminated the wheel hop completely with no other mods. I don't recommend bewoody bars for other reasons. GM answer to wheel hop for 2008 car was to redesign the Control arm and bushings. Anti Hop mods have been shown to rip the subframe apart on forums (winnipegs fastest, an old member, showed me that some time ago). JBP provides info on control arm bushings and wheel hop on their site. there is a company that replaces the rear control arm bushing with a steel oscilating joint if you send them your control arms for about $1000US to eliminate wheel hop and give more control, GM racing teams use them. TTR may appear to work but you get better results with rectifying the control arms cause you eliminate the root cause of wheel hop, get better handling from your car, If you replace the from control arm bushing only it is then about the same cost or cheaper, you retain the intended factory engine mounts for a quality daily driver. other members have posted that they have less wheel hop and can launch harder with better bigger tires. wheelhop also even less of a factor with DR's and slicks. You may think I am guessing, but I dont think so. I have researched this and experimented as well at GIMILI with traction aids.

thats all fine and dandy but to say something is a waste of money without ever trying it hands on is a little far-fetched to claim. from what i have read and researched , the ttr upper mounts are a great investment and help prevent wear and tare on your engine, and help with traction and shifting, to each their own tho...
