The difference of these mods is night and day.

Vibration at idle is the first thing I notice, it takes some time to get used to. Once you stepped on the throttle its all good. Engine response has greatly improved, launching the car from stop is noticeably quicker than before. There is absolutely no wheel hop, every up shift is stronger and immediately bring the car to leap forward. I am starting to love these mounts I would only recommend this mod if you do not mind to sacrifice a little comfort.

As for the S2 IM, it makes my car screams at VTEC. It pulls hard all the way to redline. Low end power seems the same as before. Clearly this IM was designed for high end power and it does an excellent job.

did you have to extend the IAC connection to be able to hook it up behind the manifold?

The S2 IM comes with two vacuum tubes and brackets to connect the IAC so that can hook up in front of the manifold.
