    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    Well they dont use urethane, instead its a high temp resistant rubber equivalent to 70d if I recall correctly. All I know is it smells good :)

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    Yeah, I'm planning on doing a fairly detailed How-To on both the cp-e rear engine mount, and the twm shifter bushings... as well as a full review. sbspeed - thanks for the tips on the tabs... I'll see if I can do something that won't require actually trimming it, like bending it then bending it...

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    Haha... Yeah, I inquired/researched a lot for the AWR, but in the end, calling CP-E made my decision. They gave me a lot of information and were so passionate in explaining the product that in the end, they forgot to sell it to me, I had to re-mention that I wanted to order it... to which they...

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    Absolutely! But you'll have to give me until Saturday, as I'm working everyday until then. And when I get home during the week, it's already nighttime. But it's cake! The wire nicely tucks into the doorsill and hides away with no problem. And I just have the little clear velcro stuck right...

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    The dashhawk is the single best investment ive ever made on a car. Its pretty much fixed pricing, 299. Just buy from a placebthat offers free shipping like street unit. It reads engine codes, clears them, is the equivalent of having a bunch of gauges; boost, cat temp, intake temp, volts, load...

    Do you feel the rear diff brace and mount are worthwhile upgrades? Or will these stiffer bushings transfer that negative energy to weaker parts of the drivetrain?

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    Magazines got between 5.9-6.2... Car & Driver did the fastest run at 5.4 But that doesn't mean I'm a better driver than them. I just have the DashHawk graphs at my disposal and have the time to analyze them. Also, even only after a month of ownership, I have more wheel time than those test...

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    This was only my 6th time launching the car... First 3 times, I was with a buddy, and I got 6.4, 6.8 and then 5.9... I was still getting accustomed to the clutch position and slipping it effectively. The next time, I was alone, I ran the 5.27 and 5.37, but was launching at too high an rpm and...

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    Quite frankly, I'm a bit baffled that nobody else is hitting 4.91 stock. The Speed6 has a really tricky clutch, and I still feel a really good driver should be able to hit 4.8x stock. I'll post my graphs, I have nothing to hide... I just gotta figure out how to do it. EDIT: I can't figure out...

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    I was just kidding with you. :) I can't wait to get my CP-E mount and TWM bushings. I ripped a 4.91 0-60.3 bone stock!!! The shifts being tighter with less engine movement should yield me maybe 0.1-0.2 savings of shift time, no? While im already impressed with my current figures, I think it...

    yeah, the vibrations aren't as noticeable on the red speed3s. :)

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    The 70d has actually been pulled from the shelves for some sort of manufacturing defect or some issue. Only the 88 is available at the time.

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    Well after further research, I went ahead and ordered the CP-E rear engine mount. It appears to be the softest material while still being sturdy. I just got off the phone with Jordan and Josh, and just the amount of info + data they had was compelling evidence enough for me to give it a shot...

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    well knowing what you know, would you hold off on buying any mounts? or would you still purchase a rear mount now, and just wait on the diff mount?

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    And you have the 70d correct? I'm just fearful of it vibrating and rattling like an old car. But if its just gentle tremors through the wheel that only the driver will feel, I'm willing to compromise that. I just don't want a noticeable buzzing in the cabin. You've really sold me on this...

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    So then are you saying that a passenger wouldn't even know it were there? Sorry to be so picky about it, but I'd like to know what to expect. Thanks for your patience and responses :)

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    But exactly how much is that vibration? is it just through the wheel? will a passenger notice it? is it through your seat? how does it feel and how apparent is it?, do you have to be actually paying attention to notice it, or is it disruptive?

    Turbine Tech Front Engine Mount

    I'm very enticed to get the Stage 1 from TWM, but have yet to finalize my decision... Is it a pretty straight forward install? I know bushings will take the rubbery feeling away, but I want it to positively go into gear without having to muscle it through detents. A 28% reduction in throw can't...

    Vibration, Ahhhh!!!!! So really, how much vibration are we talking? Can anyone kinda be more descriptive about it? Or make a video, that would be awesome... showing the vibration on the steering wheel, or just by letting us hear it buzzz... oand a cup of water, a la jurassic park If someone...
