    what happens when the power increase makes your floorpan fall of fin the middle of an important race battle?

    should i chrome weld my floorpans in with carbon fiber trim?

    This thread is so stupid it makes me laugh. I thought everyone knew that the only way to get noticeable hp gains was to increase fuel and air into an engine. Solid mounts and heat wraps..are you joking? Need Turbo, cams, more displacement, etc.

    Although some prefer the manual version.

    A good carbon fiber shift knob is good for at least 5hp and a loss of around 10lbs.

    OP go find a local gas station that does not have 10% ethanol. They are out there, and good fuel makes a hell of a difference.

    Solid engine mounts will not transmit more torque to the wheels

    It may improve the torque response from the engine to the wheels, but the overall amount of torque stays the same.

    You exert a force with your hand on a concrete wall, say 40 lbs, the wall has an equal and opposite reaction force of 40 lbs. You and the wall are both stationary since the forces equal eachother. The amount of deflection the concrete exhibits due to the 40 lb force of your hand on the wall is not detectable with the naked eye but it deflects a very small amount.

    Now, you exert a force with your hand on a wall with thick foam padding. The same 40 lb force as before. This time you notice that the force you applied to the wall caused the foam padding to deflect about an inch. Even though the foam padding deflected a little bit, the wall is still reacting with the same 40 lb of force that the concrete wall reacted with.

    Solid engine mounts deflect less for a given load than rubber, but at the end of the day, the reacting forces and moments which the engine produces are the same for each mount. The solid mounts deflect less and the deflection of the mount may reach steady state a fraction of a fraction of a second faster, but there is no more peak torque going to the wheels.

    i chromed my exhaust tips. that was good for 10whp.

    chrome makes the exhaust gases exit faster.

    what if you chrome your main harness and your ecu?
