I was told that if you have the original recipt from the shop you bought it from, weaponR would send a free replacement. But I lost my reciept, so the point is mute (for me anyway)
Same here. I went looking for my recipt when mine broke with no luck.

The 6 speed does that.

Here is the Stillway engine damper. I have just received some reds and gunmetal back in stock. Please give me a call if you have any questions regarding this product.


Fully aluminumized casing w/ heavy duty piston design. Mounting plates are forged aluminum.Tighten your engine chassis and eliminate unwanted movement of your engine under hard acceleration and during hard cornering. Also improves shifting engagement. Comes with heavy duty engine damper, engine chassis plate and strut top plate to secure installation.

Thanks,
Tom

Damn that civic engine looks really good. Nice color combos and all. Only thing it is missing is a full race manifold mated up to a nice T3 and that shiny pipe with the PSSSSHHHHH valve one it

From what I have read, there are mixed opinions on this thing. For $170 and easier shifting, coupled with the fact that it may prevent or atleast reduce the possibility of misshifting, i think it would be worth a go.

I personally love my Ingalls e.t.d... I can promise the Ingalls product does what it says... Also the issue with alot of the other e.t.d's on the market is the bracketery not holding up to the high horse power the evo delivers. I have seen several threads of other brands breaking or bending as soon as they are put on the car!(some companies have actually done a product recall on the brackets) Do the research on the different companies that offer this product cause several are definately are not up to par especially for the evo's......The main thing is the fact that mine cleaned up the shifting slop.. I also put in motor mounts and it is definately a great combo. Highly recommend this combination.. The only negative I can say is the resonation and vibration transfer but I put the dynamat in and that was totally gone. Plus for all the performance gains I.e shifting,decreased torque steer, decreased wheel hop, I can live with a little vibration....
