Picked up a AWR rear motor mount for my Speed6 and it arrived thursday. First let me say that out of the box this thing looks awsome. Very beefy with great quality welds and the bushings in red contrasting nicely with the black metal. Its allmost a shame to hide such a pretty piece under the car.
Install was a breeze I didnt have to remove the 2 tabs as recommended in some of the How-Tos ive seen I just spread them out a bit and the mount fit with no problem.
After install I fired up the car and there was not much of a noticable vibration either with the ac on or off. So I took her for a ride. First impression is WOW!!!!!! while there is no HP gains with this mod it fells like the power flow is transferred to the ground not into motor flop as with the stock rear motor mount. I love this mod. for the price it cant be beat....
 
Its a very solid product, I'll recommend it as one of the first things you SHOULD do to your MS6. I don't understand why people buy the SU and CP-E when this one is just as nice and $60 less. It makes the car drive 100x better.

I've noticed with mine that the AC on at a stoplight or idle makes the steering wheel vibrate a little, but without it on, it drives fine. Once you get going, it goes away.
 
You can buy these mounts through Ken @ ProtegeGarage.
