We'll see...I'm installing the Setrab on Sunday.

JB1 did a little research. Turns out the rubber dampers are used to reduce vibration in the cooler which could cause cavitation bubbles. Apparently he has a knowledgable source who has seen an STI engine blow from a rigidly mounted cooler and vibration causing bubble formation.
