I finally got the pedal dance to work in my car. I know a lot of people just get the trac box to activate it at a button push but just in case some people are struggling and don't want to spend the extra money, I figured I would post what worked for me.
My idle was set too high (1050) so no matter how much the car warmed up it wouldn't ever be in a state to accept the inputs. Dropping it to 850 made activating pedal dance easy and consistent to start. It only needs to be below 1000 but my brake pedal causes the rpm to jump so I went lower than necessary.

If anyone was ever thinking of running something stiffer than the rubber WRX mounts that come with the kit ... don't even bother trying. Took me two minutes of run time to figure it out.

edit:

Anchor 9024 is what is included in the KPower mount kit
Anchor 9023 is also listed for a WRX, it is what some refer to as "STI Mounts". They're larger than the 9024 and you have to run the drivers side flipped to clear the oil pan.

Probably just buy the 9024 if replacing the mounts.

Maybe a bit of semi-useless info, but I was digging around a found that both the TSX and S2000 use manifold braces. This may be a moot subject if Kpower offers/switches to the balancer shaft setup.

#9 might be a second brace as well but I couldn't confirm.

This may have been buried in this thread somewhere but a homebrew brace can be made pretty easily with cheap materials.

Nice, I made a similar brace (maybe I posted in my build thread).
