If you are fitting WALK alone at this stage, it would be helpful to know how you find the difference. Many of us fitted WALK at the same time as other suspension mods.

Next to a remap this is the most noticeable/best mod I have ever done to a MK5.......... :happy2:

Imho no chance without full engine mounts to solve wheel hop. The WALK will complement the engine mounts.
LSD and stickier tyrers will further improve traction. No spinning, no wheel hop.
Toyo R1-R and Yokohama AD08 are pretty sticky when warm up.
