Torque Damper

[Beaker™]

Would a mildly modded 1.8T (200-250bhp) benifit from an engine damper?

Simlilar to this. Could it be a viable alternative to uprated engine mounts?

On a similar note anyone have one of these torque damping bushes from Awsome GTI fitted?

won't fit the ibiza though... as the engine is mounted differently to all other 1.8T's

What the damper bush from Awsome?

yup.

I'm sure you could fabricate something similar to the evo pic you've posted though.

Ahh i see, cheers for that. As for the damper, might be worth a look i've seen dampers mounted between the strut brace and rocker cover before now. Would be easy enough to do.

You could probably do it off the bit where the engine code stamp.

cupra_matt has this off his strut brace and to where the OEM charge pipe brace is.
