We wanted to let you all know our opinion on the Ingalls Stiffy mount. Ingalls called us wanting to know if we would test out there new product and give them and the rest of the world our opinion. We agreed and informed them that we are not the best to do this as we are hard on parts and give our honest opinion on the net and they may not be what they want others to hear. They said they could handle it and they where sending one out.

Anyway enough with the story on the part, I know that Paul has already done a great review and this is not that. This is more of our opinion and what we think of it on a 380whp car. We put this on our silver car after we got back from Orlando to test this part. Mind you that we broke the “other” brands in less than 10 minutes we cracked the bracket in 3 dyno pulls. We were skeptical to say the least.

We put this on the car and took it out around the block. The car instantly feels so much tighter that it feels more like a 350z. The car does make some noise now not sure what this noise will be like on a less powerful car but on our tC there is defiantly some audible proof that it is working. We did not notice any vibrations as some have complained about but we did opt for the dynamat option.

We then performed the burn out video that you all have come to love with the Stiffy on the car. It did not break we have put over a thousand miles on the car with it and no complaints.

Our total take is this….If you are serious about power you need this part. If you have or plan on having a turbo kit, supercharger or more parts than an intake you need this part. I would say that this will yield quicker ¼ miles time than any other part out there this side of a turbo kit. The engine movement has stopped and negative affects of such have to. We have experienced 6+ inches of travel on the dyno and this has eliminated the problem all together. No more worrying about intercooler pipes, wheel hop, etc….

Thanks

Oh and please note all test have the stiffy at full stiffness

I'm still waiting on your motor mounts.... like that idea a lot ALSO.

 

yeah, hopefully we only have like another month to wait

 

And we can finally find out the hardness on them!

 

[bevis talk]He said stiffy [/end bevis]

 

thanks for the review

 

What it you used this with ZPI motor mounts... would it rattle your teeth out ?

 

^ probably gonna feel the vibration through the steering wheel.

 

[butthead talk] hu-huh-hu-huh yeah, stiffy[/end butthead]

 

The motor mounts are probably going to add more vibration alone....

^ golly guys......

 

Motor Mounts or Ingal.... such decisions :?

 

^ That's my perspective too.

 

Ingalls is far easier to install and has been proven to work and hold up.
Motor mounts require more work and that average person here wont know how to install them, themselves.

 

I gotta say that while motor mounts are theoretically better, the WeaponR/Ingalls dampers do a damn good job at securing the motor and putting down all of the power. Another nice feature is that they are easily removed if you get tired of the cabin noise or minor vibrations...if you have any...where motor mounts are more or less permanent.

 

there is also the "chubby" for over 500 hp applications....

 

I highly recommend both. They both get rid of power robbing engine movemnet but each item gets rid of certain "kinds" of eng. movement. i.e lateral, horizontal, vertical movements. Both items limit movement in different ways also. I have the combo on a couple different kinds of cars and again HIGHLY recommend both seeing that they do a great job in complimenting each other performance wise..

 

I must say that the Stiffy is my favorite mod ever! Made a difference more than anything else Ive put on my car. It seems like its gotten better too since the first time I put it on. Mine is at maximum stiffness and vibrations are only felt when I first start rolling but I like it in a way. I like everything about this product and the engine sound has completely changed. Its like I can hear everything going on in the engine. Great product here!

 

Oh and if Id known how happy the Stiffy would of made me before... I sooo would have paid the original MSRP!

 

Now you don't have to we have them on SALE.....yeah...

 

possibly my next mod.
