So last night I installed my AWR motor mounts and tranny mount. They were all 88's. (shocked)The freaking thing shakes like the San Andreas Fault! It's louder in the cabin then outside the car! I think I made a mistake, but I'm gonna drive it for a while just in case things "loosen up" a little. And hey, the girlfriend seems to like it (godown)
 
Well I was hoping to do away with the "drive line lash". Unfortunately, the clutch engagement only got slightly better. Let's say I take one of the aftermarket mounts off to alleviate some of the vibes (I can live with some). Which one should I replace with the stocker again? I was thinking the passenger side mount. Comments?
 
Definitely keep the rear. The front is the second most important, but you could remove the passenger side. If the mounts are new, they should die down after awhile (~1000 miles).
 
yeah put some miles on em. not only will the settle, (slightly), but you'll adjust to it as well.

so you did all three awr mounts in 88 duro? i love the difference my mounts made. i just put up with the vibes. its worth it since it shifts soooo much better.
 
Yea, I did all 3 as 88's. It seems to be getting a bit better, but I still feel like I need to hold down the dash at low RPMs. Forget keeping change in the car anymore.
 
The mounts will settle down just a little bit over the next few weeks. I would encourage you to get some sort of ECU management and bring your idle up to 900-950 revs. I did that and have no vibrations, ever.

Picking up the AP today, but I don't have an upgraded TMIC yet so the "Stage2 93 v101p +TMIC 900rpm idle" map wouldn't work for me........Right?

Correct. However, if you apply for AccessTuner Race from Cobb you can modify the idle yourself. It's pretty easy.
