Which one is better and why.

The Front engine mount is soo much cheaper but how hard is it to install?

I like the Idea of adjustability and the "bling factor" of the Damper but I also like the Idea of paying 40 bucks for a front mount.

 

Engine mount cheaper, But ***** to install!

Damper Expensive, Easy to install

Mount is real Fix

Damper is Bandaid

 

that sums it up pretty good

my wr damper felt useful for a day

 

i did both. ingalls stiffy and forge front mount

 

how hard would it be to install the poly mount without a press?

 

I did a front mount on 5.slow's car in about 15min without a press just with hand tools you don't need anything more than that.

 

Just go with the engine mount, you won't regret it

 

Is there really any downside to upgrading the engine mounts? I read that it makes the car shake a little more.. Any thoughts?

I highly doubt the mounts could make the car shake too much more than it does...considering the frame should be stiff enough to be able to keep the engine still...maybe if you were sitting still and revving it it might shake a little

 

Sorry for not reading or searching on this, but hope a simple yes or no will suffice...

Do the 06 Evo IX's have different/upgraded motor mounts or do they require the same aftermarket love as the previous evos?

Thanks

Kevin

 

Yep, hes right.

It all depends on how much effort you wanna put into it.

 

seeing as how I already broke my cheap **** weapon-R/ingalls/stiffy engine dampener, I think the motor mounts are a better solution.

much harder to install however....

 

is there a "how to" for the front mount?
