There's no need for the stiffy with the mounts. The mounts are plenty able to reduce engine movement.

^^^ Now now all mount options are Band-aids in some way. The only way to remove all drivetrain movement is SOLID mounts no rubber or poly just a SOLID mount. One person might like mounts and one might like the damper as a solution. All I know is both have been proven in other vehicles not just the Tc platform. Its all personal preference.

I have had both on my car. I just recently sold my Ingalls dampner. I can tell you that the Stiffy doesn't even come close to these mounts. I barely noticed the dampner and it was set at the 10mm (stiffest) setting. Only drawback to the mounts is the vibrations.

Oh, and they can make 90 durometer mounts which is pretty damn close to solid. Don't think anyone would like those unless on a race car.

Like I said we all have a product that does the Job. I wont say new mounts/inserts arent one of the best ways to solve the issue but as you say...vibrations are there to stay and cant be dialed out or removed for a long road trip or a date with your lady friend.

I have said it before and will say it again if the Vibrations from your car are treating your girl to a great time why does she need you? J/k good luck with your mounts and think about teaming a damper with them. The damper will allow you to dial in just that little bit extra.

The vibrations are not felt accept for stop and go. Long drives are just fine. I drove three hours home from Speed-Source and forgot I had the mounts.

If I was in real slow stop and go traffic for a long period of time, then they may get annoying.

I will tell you that I will be looking into mounts to team up with my Ingalls Etd in the future...but as of now my current power level and ammount of time the car is "raced" is very little. As I increase my power levels and racing involvement inserts will be on my list.

After this first run is done, we will basically just be making full production of the mounts... we are waiting on some materials to come, but it should not be long before we have full stock, and I will annouce that to everybody

Any idea when these will get shipped I was kind hoping I would have them before this weekend. Any idea if we'll get them before Thanksgiving? Thanks.

Hi guys - I am sending out e-mails to everybody as soon as they are on the way

ALL OF THE FULLY PAID ORDERS WILL SHIP OUT TODAY/TOMORROW! Thanks for participating all.

There are no tracking numbers, but they are going via USPS priority mail, so expect 2-3 day shipping to everybody.

As for everybody else that wants some, I will let you know as soon as we have a stock of more

Nate

Wow, I can't believe it's really happening. Thanks for Nate. I'm sure your product will become a good seller.
