you could get prothane bushings or an engine dampener

 

traction bars. Or better suspension.

I went from stock suspension to kybs/GC's and eliminated almost all of my wheel hop in my old single cam turbo. I also had a motor mount insert on the back mount.

 

Depending on your HP you may need all the above. rota92 and I have JimFab lower and rear mounts, Full Race traction bar, urathane inserts in the tranny mount and Energy Suspension Race insert in the top mount along with a LSD.

The rear mount seemed to make the biggest difference at lower HP

 

my civic dynos at 175-185 with intake exaust and header and the wheel hop is very intense specaily from first to second then it just chirps to 3rd and 4th whicth is okay i think!
im jst stressing about braking something

Is it a GSR or a type R. For one you can get better tires wit a lil mor side wall and a traction bar kit. also a better suspension kit (I.E shocks)

 

 

its a b18C5 motor and i wanna keep the low pro tires cause i have those white type R rims so should i jst go wit the front traction bar or put bushings on the motor mounts whicth one would be a better bang for the buck?
