I can't help you with the wheel hop, but how do you like having the front wheels disconnected? How has it improved the drive? Thanks

honestly it feels a little quicker... not much in my opinion... turning is much more fun... just kick it out... you have to be more aggressive i would say with this setup...didnt remove everything...the drive shaft comes off in less than an hour... only takes that long for all the bolts and so fourth holding on the under paneling... I figure if i remove the front diff and so fourth and save the 150lbs it might be a problem at high speeds... I was told because of the lighter weight thats why the GT-2 bumper is designed in such a way to compensate for downforce... this also could be rubbish...dont know.. WAY MORE FUN THOUGH
