The center damper is really in the way. Do I have to remove it?

 

depends...whose piping are you using?? I didn't remove mine for my original fmax install but I pulled it off (brackets and all) after the rebuild to make more room for the oil cooler, oil filter, and air horns. I didn't notice any noticeable increase in vibes...then again I also have ES engine mounts...

Yeah, I guess it would help it I told you what piping I was using It's the drag gen 2 IC and piping.
