Well, we definitely recommend some polyurethane motor mounts if you're going to be making a lot of power. We developed motor mounts for our Stage 2 Supercharger kit because we needed the clearance and wanted to keep the motor from jostling around.
Here are some pics of our motor mounts (they come standard in our Stage 2 Supercharger Kit, but will be available separately): At 1:25, you can see the mounts in action on our Stage 2 Supercharger Kit. Last edited by Mike@GTM; 07-27-2011 at 05:43 PM. |

I wonder how much additional vibration comes through to the cabin with these stiffer mounts. I know everything is a tradeoff, and that motor is incredibly stable in the video under acceleration.

Nice. I believe I had upgraded mounts on my STi and never really noticed, but that car kinda shimmied anyway.

Yeah, except that the tranny mounts sit under your seat and the vibration has a very direct path to your rear end.
