On the DSM, the motor mounts (front and rear) made a huge improvement in reducing wheelhop. Upgrading the suspension took care of the rest. On the EVO, I did the BR front motor mount, and that took care of all of my wheelhop trouble. Probably because the stock suspension on the EVO is nearly as good as what I "upgraded" to on the DSM. The car will spin all 4 smoothly, or it will hook up if that's what I need to do, without wheelhop. The car seems to be launching well, since I'm getting low 1.6s consistently on the stock sized snow tires (Grapsics). We'll see if the wheelhop (or lack thereof) changes any when I go back to the stiffer/stickier Advans.

thanks for the tips Kevin, I'll give that a try.

I don't know if you recall but we met at NED a couple years ago.
