Hey gang,
Newbie here. I installed the CP-E rear motor mount I had ordered from Whoosh last night.
Holy cow can I say I am impressed. I was honestly a little scared it was going to shake my car around at idle, but with A/C full blast at idle I could not tell a difference nor could my fiance from the stock mount. I had a CP-E race mount on my mazdaspeed3 way back when, and it was instantly noticeable and harsh. This thing is butter. I torqued the bolts to 52 ft-lbs per CP-E, and wow is that a lot lighter than I thought it would be. I wonder if some people are just tightening the beans out of their mounts without a torque wrench causing extra vibrations to transfer.
The shifting feel is so much more solid. I hooned it around a little bit last night after install, no more 1-2 motor knock/slap noise, and the shifter just feels like it should. Wheels feel a bit more planted as well.
I am loving it. I see why it was a bit more expensive, they put effort into that special rubber they have in it.
