Anyway, my first interest is in how you felt about the ride and response after installing the VF mounts?
they do transmit some vibration. before the latest chip burn it used to rock the whole car with the lope of the idle, now the idle is smoother. The mounts eliminated a lot of wheel hop. Also the shifter doesn't walk under hard acceleration. The vibration doesn't bother me because the car is so stiff anyway.

I have just a Turn 2 Front mount, and although I realise that it is not at "hard-core" as the rest of the mounts, It eliminated the wheel hop, helps with accelleration, and does not transmit any vibration. Too bar they are out of business IIRC.

Cool, what's next. After my outside mods I need to do some engine mods. But this could take a few years. Can't wait to see it in person.
