If you have stage 2, move down to 2.9" pulley add the ls4 throttle body and that should do it...that's what happened with my car...went from wheel hop to wheel spin. I'm sure motor mounts would do it also but would cost more and may not fully do it.

I have to say...the faux 2.4 redline in storm grey looks pretty good but it's still lame.

FTW.

TTR poly trans and engine mounts. Best investment ever.

BTW, if you went from hop to spin without traction mods, you lost power. I guess that's one way to solve the problem.
