Good stuff, Mike. If I didn't have Stasis mounts, I'd be all over this

Default Soft = OEM feel? Firm = Street feel?

Or is it?

Soft = "Street"
Firm = "Track" feel of other brand mounts (ASP, Stasis , etc.)

Default Depends on your power..

I prefer to recommend the soft for cars under 350hp. Firm for cars over 350hp, but everyone's tolerances are slightly different.


Our firm mount for example is on WMS's beast. A few folks here are running both the soft and firm mounts.
A couple quotes from users..
"Happy here. Initially I noticed the vibration - my wife joked we now own a Harley, I barely notice the vibrations now. I still think the version I have s/b limited to an S4 that is 2+ or greater due to the reduction in refinement. However, anyone after performance s/b happy with your mounts at this stiffness level." - S4 w/Firm mounts

"he's liking them a lot. From what he's experiencing...almost no added vibes." - S4 w/firm mounts

"The vibrations at idle without the ac on are not noticeable. When the ac is on the car does have some vibrations. " - A4 1.8big turbo w/ firm mounts

Default I have 'firm' mounts in my car. I highly reccomend them.

I went from super squishy nearly blown RS4 mounts to these.

I can tell a slight difference at idle, but not really. The only time I can hear / feel them is around 2500 rpm. There is a slight added vibration... and I say slight.

At this point, after about 1000 miles of use, I don't even notice them anymore.

Great mount. I would definately buy them again!!!
