i was thinking about buying the ingalls engine damper, i just want to know if i should but or dont waste my money buying?? does anyone own this and can you tell me what difference did you feel???

 

i want an engind damper so bad. i could tottaly feel the engine rock back and forth.
As far as i know they are a good mod...

 

definetly a good mod and you can feel the difference in engine movement ..much more stable

 

yes you feel the difference...alot of people just run the esmm.. they cost about $30 new and cut the shaking motor very well

 

whats the ESM?

 

Energy Suspension Motor Mounts=ESMM...I also have the ingalls engine damper car definitely feels alot more stable..smoother shifting also.

 

im picking up a ingalls tq damper this weekend for my 05-s

 

Is there a lot of cabin rattle?

 

the esmm are a very good mod for 20 bucks i got my moneys worth i currently have a cracked motor mount on my rsx, i was gonna buy the motor mount itself but eversince i bought the motor mount inserts it seems like the problem just went away sometimes i forget that i have a cracked motor mount.....point is 20 bucks for motor mount inserts is worth the dough, but nvh level will increase

 

iwant to get the ingalls when i get more money and energy suspension inserts

 

how easy is it to do the motor mount inserts?

 

asd

 

they're sort of difficult but the end results are worth all the hard work...u can find the instructions on http://www.ivtecdaily.com

 

My friend has the Spoon version on his S2k and he loves it. Never tried or had expereience with ingalls. Im sure they do the same thing.

 

Here is the link directly to the motor mount install

esmm were bad ***, but i think i broke (tore) mine my car is starting to have wheel hop again, i have an 04 ep used to be bottle fed but now its k20a2, everytime i redline and shift from 1st to 2nd it has mad wheel hop, they are either broke (tore) or getting soft.

 

The urethane inserts will actually deform over time; urethane doesn't spring back like rubber does.

The whole mount might need replacing, upgrading, or whichever. Others (like Chunky over at ephatch & clubrsx) have taken to filling the stock mounts with stiff urethane epoxy or window sealant. Old autocross trick.

 

There is also replacement mounts for our cars the retail for about $300-400. Can't remember who makes them and i really haven't heard many reviews on them.

 

Innovative and Enjo are the two names that come to mind (besides Mugen, of course). Both of them are urethane and completely custom, while Mugen uses harder rubber in the stock mount housing.

Personally, I'd either fill my stock mounts or go with Mugen.

 

and how do you go about doing that if i may ask?

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by chunky &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">I thought about using the tried and true "window weld" fix, but the cure time on it was kind of ridiculous. I settled on some 3m 2 part poly urethane mixes. It's part of their "Scotch-weld" lineup of products. These products certainly weren't cheap (they required the purchase of a rather expensive applicator gun AND you have to use a new disposable nozzle for each bottle of stuff you use), but they had really short cure times AND were much firmer than window weld. For reference, window weld has a hardness of 55A and the products I used had a hardness of 70D and 85A respectively.</TD></TR></TABLE>
