The puzzle locks are basically locking wheel bolts that dont snap like the mcgards , So nothing trick But i will be running two lockers on each wheel to save the Brakes & Wheels, :happy2:

It does help get those ponies to the floor :wink:
-
std 200 ps suffers with axle tramp and wheel hop, so 260hp will only amplify it.
dont argue just give in and by the mounts :P
-
At a minimum try the engine mount torque insert. I found that along with the WALK worked very well at eliminating wheel hop.
P.S. Nice modding list...

Brakes
1)AP racing 4 pots
2)FDO DS pads for the road
3)Pagid Blues for the track
4)2 piece rotors
5)Hel lines (I should be picking up this brake bundle from Dave in the next couple of days)
6)Motul RBF
I have been unfortunate enough to hold these brakes in my house, really wish i hadn't because it instantly made me want to ditch my new set up. They are made out of maltezer's, its unbelievable how light they are. :congrats:
