    KMH001 - i recall a few months back you were thinking about a rear motor mount with a bit more give than the SU/CPE but with better holding than the stockers...would these guys be able to help with that too? So many ideas!

    I've recently removed my CP-e rear mount and tbh, I found no difference in going back to stock apart from getting rid of the vibrations.

    My rear diff mount other the other hand did not increase vibrations and made the rear feel tighter. There might be a market for getting two diff mounts replaced.

    The engine mount idea I had was to use the metal of a stock mount and fabricate my own slightly stiffer insert.

    I'm not sure how far they would deviate from intercoolers and metal fabrication, but I'll ask.

    If your aversion to vibrations is anything to go by, I suggest sticking to the stock rear engine mount. I don't feel there are any real world gains on our particular platform by going to a stiffer mount from stock.

    I would also suggest getting the silicon elbow pipe as part of the initial product. It wouldn't increase the install time by more than a couple of minutes, but the best thing is it replaces the accordian pipe which happens to ribbed on the inside. Can't be beneficial for flow.

    Fulcrum are having a crack at the engine mount as we type.

    They have my std engine mount and are developing some different style inserts.

    I just got back from a trip to QLD. Have a message from Hyperflow asking me in tomorrow to test fit the mock-up TMIC. If it fits well they will go into production. The core size appears to have more area than the ETS unit. Hopefully have a photo to post tomorrow.
