Anyone Here With A 20g Fwd 1g?

[Goat Blower]

By the time you put in a Quaife and some really sticky tires on the front, you could've just had an AWD. I've driven my car a couple times in FWD mode and it'll spin the tires easily at anything under 90 mph even in 3rd and 4th gear. It also jerks to the right when the tires break loose. I've got a little more than a 20G though. :banana:

I ran a 20G on my FWD 2G. It wasn't all that fun, so I bought an AWD, or two.

Alright, thanks guys. I was hoping to get some responses from people with that setup, so that's cool. I think I have enough money for an AWD, so if I can find one that suites me, I'll pick it up. Also, thanks for the piston info ecoli. I would have elite tune it also. Noah

Joe, you got wheel-hop cuz you didn't have anything to stop it. I get no wheel-hop with my setup, but I might be crazy.

Yeah right. A stock 2g fwd gets wheel hop in second gear. This is remy's car with an intake only.

Are you attempting to argue with me about my car? If you are please tell me which products that I have purchased to help elimate wheel-hop are not working, thank you, this will be most beneficial.

I dont know your car but I know a slow ass 2g can wheel hop easily. This is the same 2g (intake, 15-14psi) that lost to a 95 tsi awd (stock) from a 55-110 roll. The 96 GST had 160 across the board for compression while the AWD had shitty compression (up and down across the cylinders). That is a f-ed up 2g and it can still wheel hop easily in 3rd.

After buying your suspension, LSD, and installing it all, wouldn't it have been alot cheaper to go AWD in the first place?

What did your non-wheel hop setup run 1/4? (16g and FMIC)

I didn't care about the cost, I bought the car that I wanted (which was actually just as expensive as the AWD's at the time). The first DSM that I ever owned was a GSX and I just didn't like driving the AWD for some reason...I think the car just felt more sluggish due to weight and had a lot more push in the corners. I am sorry to hear that your buddy's car is a POS, but I really don't see how that relates to this dilema. My car is heavily modded, his, well, isn't. To help eliminate the wheel hop, the Prothane motor-mounts, full coilover suspension with adjustable shocks, and sudo-LSD all came into play.
