Sorry about the two questions in one, but here goes:

Does anyone have any experience with the boomba motor mounts? Also, how do they compare to AGP, because the boombas look alot sweeter than the AGPs, but also cost a little more. If they don't perform at least as well, then I'll probably go with the AGP.

What about throttle bodys. I've heard Lorenzo is the guy to call, but there are so many TBs to choose from. The boombas look sweet, and I think they are 70mm, but I haven't heard much about them. Anybody out there with a little TB experience please respond.

 

I doubt there's difference between the boomba and agp mounts. You're paying for the extra bling. They're nice though for sure. The only one you ever see is the smallest one though lol

I just actually installed all three agp mounts yesterday! They're working great, I need some traction though. I had mm inserts prior and there's definitely much improvment.

 

motor mounts are motor mounts for the most part. the boomba's seem to have slightly less cabin vibration but the overall same effect on wheel hop.

as for the tb...the lornenzo is the way to go imo. however, he's charging an arm and a leg for them now and he's backordered like a month. if you want another option take a look at the kinetic tb. i drove a car with it on last weekend and i was impressed. it was similar to my lorenzo, but a lot less money. if i had to buy a tb right now, i'd get the kinetic. the boomba is WAY too big. a few people i know have it, and they all hate it.

 

Where could I find a kinetic TB? I'm also going with some ED hard pipes, so will the bigger trottle body present any fitment issues? Also, I've heard mixed reviews about traction bars. I was going to go with glacial graphics because of the 4-point mounting system they have. What all do I need to get suspension wise to compliment the MM and help with drag radials? I'm assuming the DRs will give me increased whell hop. OK, only a million questions in one. I'm just getting to a point now where my car is fast enough that I'm really starting to crack out on throwing money at it!

 

you can get the kintetic i think at modern or through n2mbracing. to fitmet issues with any of the hard pipe kits.

traction bars are a waste of money imo. i've heard about the new ones that glacial has out, and while the design does sound much better and more effective, i'm going to wait and see what the results are on that one.

a set of lower control arm bushings will help a lot with wheel hop. you'll actually see less wheel hop with the dr's probably.

did i get it all?

 

I think that about covers it. Thanks PSI Chick. But as far as hard pipes, even with the stock trottle body I'm going to have fitment issues aren't I? I hear they are a pain to install, but I guess I'll just have to deal with it. I MUST have water/meth injection and a new BOV. I found a dealer who said for about a $100 he will give me a 55 gallon drum of methanol (and I know he has it because when I got my 104 he had at least 15 drums in the shop...). Do you mix it 60/40 meth to water? Oh, and are ED hardpipes the way to go? What about ED Beast intercooler? You have both of these on your ride, do you not? (nothing like a million more questions, eh?) It's always better to hear success stories than spending wads of cash blindly, IMO....

 

yes, i have a beast fmic...great unit, i highly recommend it. it's on backorder for about 2 months though...

hard pipes never fit right and always take some modification to get them on. that's just how it is...ed's aren't that bad though.

i use a 50/50 mixture at the moment, might go to a 25/75 soon though

 

Thanks! I believe I will be going ED all the way. By the way, what type of w/i system do you have?

 

i'm currently using a devil's own kit, it's been rather good so far
