Soften up the front rebound on the pedders so it can soak up the hop. That should keep you from breaking the next on due to hop but it won't fix the weak link.

My fronts are generally set on full soft all the time. I max out the stiffness on rear rebound on track days, but soften for commute.

Tighter rear suspension combats wheel hop a little.

A little less traction would would have been more beneficial in your case

Pre, I was doing some research on your current situation. It looks like you are on Trensetter Island.

I was surprised to see there were no similar issues with the Cruze. I know people mod them, maybe I missed this happening on Cruzetalk.

If you go race tires/wheels, I think 15s will be needed. Each beef up will find another weakness.

"What kind of mods do you have?"

"We'll I ramped my power up by 80%, added a racing clutch and then I installed some slippery tires to protect my transmission."


A conversation that was never spoken in the history of the automotive world.

But you do have an obscure point. Hahaha

P.S. Didn't mean to be a smart ass, but I couldn't help it on that one

I was expecting this process to be part of my journey. The razors edge is the at the point between spending a bunch of money to build something stronger and then breaking that same thing that was constructed.

I still have plans to make even more power, but all that is on hold indefinitely until I can succeed in a failure free launch with the power I have.

Acceptable risk. I get it.
Like stepping out on the track. You don't gear up if you are afraid to break something.

I think even with the 15 inch race wheels you will still have a transmission with limited time. You will ultimately need custom performance parts.

"At least my input shaft protected my axles"

Ok, last one I swear. Hahaha

I spoke to a couple trans Jedi about a F40 (ATS 2.0T trans), it's doable, but very involved. The hardest part would be overcoming starter interference.

I think that new Forge BPV put you past the limit and caused the shaft failure.

Where you liking the sound more before the shaft snapped?

 

[GeneralZod]

Or, your Input shaft self destructed in the name of saving tread life. Now you can drive 75 more miles had you spun the tires.

 

[Preloader]

The BPV sounded fine. In fact Vince saw my datalog and said I was making max power without needing more than 20 psi boost. That's great news for the engine.

 

[rdss]

Nice. I have been contemplating tossing the atmospheric back in for a bit but everytime I think about how big of a pain in the ass it is decide not to.

Edit: Mark this moment as a piece of history, its my first imugr post

Ha, when I try to link a pic that is protected and comes up broken, I just screencap it and load it to imgur and post it myself. Then I yell " I threw it on the Ground!!!"..... Because I'm not a part of their system.

welcome to the real world jacka$$

You should change your signature to "not functional"

How did u seal the tail lights back up... Silicone?
Mines such a warped mess lol

The ATS is rear drive. I think you mean Regal or Verano.

Derp. Yeah that's what I meant. opcorn:
