Even with rubber mounts wcxms are still harsh during idle, and off throttle. Definitely better than urethane though. On-throttle, they are much more pleasant from memory, its been a while. If not tolerable in a new duratec, a rattly old cossie hasnt got a hope[:x)] Not much chance of tearing a mount with a torque damper.

I can but i'm not sure how it'll look. Give it a couple of weeks til the mag is actually off the shelf. It's not that expensive and is worth it just for the nice pic in the middle

...The poster photo is a good one - I get the originals now it is out on sale so that is great as I cannot take photos like the pro...

...My Christmas wish came true and early - latest dyno result today at 376hp atw up from 352hp...A tickle here and there and she is hauling. Big grins...Should have been a boost/power v RPM curve, but it was a rush...We cleaned up the curve in later runs with a change to the e-boost2 settings and yielded 278-280kW...

Great work Mark, good to see you could squeeze the cossie a bit more.

Good Stuff Mark!
what sort of torque is it making? and did you up the boost much?
by the looks of the graph and my limited knowledge is it your cams holding you back! or is that wheel spin?

[:u] That's mighty impressive Mark!

Makes me feel even worse that mine is sitting in there with the engine in bits though.
