I don't have any issues with wheelspin, but then again I don't drive aggressively on the road. My only problem arose at the track. Gear selection is really hard. I've been told I need an engine torque damper. Engine can torque load which also moves the gear selector. Changing down into 3rd would either jam or slide across into 5th. Headers also hit heatshield fitted to steering arms under brisk acceleration.
it will be hard getting good time on our dc5 or any NA car .. unless u wna take stuff off.. which after spending 25k + on a car... not many people would..
this is aimed at dc5R/S not the other cars which people do engine conversions on
I got Engine Torque Damper on my car.
Can't really say that it helped with gear selection, but there is defiantly more cabin noise.
oh, there is a little less movement of engine rocking back and forth, Supposed to help with wheel hoping.
Well that’s my experience of it on my car.
Have you taken your car to the track? That's the only time I noticed it. Going into the fish hook at Wakefield and hard under brakes into the final turn.Quote:
