Heh.. What can I do to ease up on the wheel hop? In 2nd gear if I go WOT .. boost at 12-14psi the front tires just ****in leap off the ground... happens as soon as I hit 12-14psi.. if I don't go WOT it ain't an issue..
Btw.. this happens at like 40-50mph  I'm using an E153 w/ an MR2 VLSD and I'm on BFG G-force Sport performance summer tires.. (225's) -------------------- 87 4runner DLX 22re, 5spd, 4.30gr, 4" lift, 30" tires, HID w/ Projectors, 6spkr + sub, custom exhaust, 94 celica leather seats, SR5 gauge cluster and clinometer. Future engine swap... possibly a 2jzge.

No traction issues here in 2nd. Only if I go from WOT from 1st to 2nd it tends to skid a 1/10 of a second. This is on dry roads of course. In the wet I cant do much untill 3rd gear.
225/35/18 Toyo Proxes T1-R tyres with TEIN SS dampers at hardest setting. BTW These are soft compound tyres. Done about 6000 miles on them (5000 with turbo) and already down to 30% thread This post has been edited by Kadett: Dec 29, 2006 - 9:02 AM -------------------- JDM Powerplant installed, BPU coming very soon!
