Yeah, I've seen it. I'm just more curious about long term (like welds breaking) and fitment issues.

I have the dampenor and heres my thoughts......

The fitment was HORRIBLE. i had to hack the **** out of it to get it to fit in the motor mount part. the rest of the kit was a perfect fit.

Performance: AMAZING. it truly works and 100% eliminates wheel hop. Also the torque is felt more too.

Vibrations: At idle the vibration increase is barely noticeble. usually its only for a few seconds and then the rpm changes itself and its gone. Most people wont even notice it.

Bottom line. Well worth it, but blood was shed to install it.....literally. i have a video and pics too.

This is a video i took. http://media.putfile.com/dampenor-005
its true, the engine doesnt move at all! ok maybe 1mmmmmm. lol
