Reducing Wheelhop

I know one of the things fwd guys will do to help manage wheel hop is lsd and motor mounts
Motor mounts will have the most dramatic effect on reducing wheelhop. Suspension will help as well but not nearly as much. On DSMs, which had softer mounts and weaker suspsensions, wheel hop is a very real problem, and the number one cause for driveline breakage.
The EVO even stock does much better, but it will still wheelhop. If you get good traciton, or go into a full blow-the-tires-off wheelspin, you are unlikely to get it. It's when you are teetering on the edge of traction that wheelhop becomes a problem, even on the EVOs. If you are not getting wheelhop on the stock parts, you aren't trying hard enough.

wheelhop I seen traction problems but wheelhopMotor mounts and bushings go a long way towards eliminating the issue in the evo. I would personally skip the damper, it's really only a band aid.
