Default ENERGY SUSPENTION MOTOR MOUNTS

i talked to energy suspention about making motor mounts for the 08 xb. they said they would make them but need a xb for a few days to do it.it would be free to the sponsered car.i dont have the time to do it.they are in san clamente ca. if anyone is intrested you need to go to there web site and in the upper right hand coner it says r and d. click on that and fill out the form and send pics.they are looking for a car that has up grades............we all know how bad the xb needs better motor mounts...

Gen1 would not be compatible but it might be worth cross referencing the stock tC motor mounts with stock Gen2 motor mounts by part #.
Then the ES ones might be usable for the Gen2

If you guys can sit tight for 2-3 weeks we will be done with a front motor mount for the xb2 manual

Features:
Direct bolt in, not press in
6000 series aluminum
CAD designed and virtually stress tested
Track Proven

I will make a dedicated post here in a couple weeks. It will be worth the wait

XB2 mount for the 5 speed has been tested both on the track as well as using stress testing CAD software.

We still need to get the auto test fitted. They should be ready Dec 1st just in time for the holidays


Initial impressions:

-When you start the car(1-2 seconds) the starter noise is significantly louder.

-Virtually no engine movement during idle, load, and heavy acceleration.


Pictures, description, and pricing will be released towards the end of next week.
