Unless you look around, you could wind up with your car feeling like a Harley with a frame mounted, non-counterbalanced engine ......

Apparently, the Cusco ones are more solid than Perrin, but that's what searching the forums told me.

So if you want more solid get Cusco engine mounts, if you want more tolerable daily mounts get Perrin.

I have the cusco ones, and after driving it a little today, they seem fine. Definitely more noises though, but I also have a solid trans mount as well.

I have the Perrin Performance mounts and find them to be effective without being overly intrusive.

To be honest Vibration at start up aside, it does feel good, my friend's car have it & it makes his car a lot more raw. But It would drive me crazy if I have drive to anywhere out side of Vegas since it's 3 hours + to get anywhere.


If you just drive your car in short distance in a city or only on track, it would be wonderful setup just not on a trip or extended hours.
