Poly engine mounts anyone?

Been thinking about getting some innovative engine mounts with 75a harness. Just questioning how much vibration I would get inside the car.
Does anyone have these in their cu2 that can share their experiences?

on the third gen TL, the innovative brand poly mounts would donut very quickly. since then, i think they've changed formulas or changed something to where it doesnt really happen any more....BUT that scared me enough to just go for XLR8 Poly mounts.

i am rocking the 75a durometer mounts .
at idle, you will feel vibrations through steering wheel. passengers will have a slight massaging chair.
tis my race car, so i dont give a fuck

I don't think XLR8 makes mounts for my chassis. That's what the website tells me when I put in my year make and model.

^v6?

most honda mounts are interchangeable between v6 models.


if you have the i4,


but like mentioned; Innovative has changed the way they implement the polyurathane, so i'm sure you'll have no problems and if you do...they are a phone call away

and the polyurathane is a wear and tear item, so the XLR8's can donut over time as well

interesting, with a smaller engine, i wonder if you would have vibrations.
in all honesty, my car isnt bad at all. doesnt have the luxury smooth feel any more but I like it stiff

I had poly hasport mounts on my ek9 and it was rattle city but not sure what hardness it was. 75a seems to be ok. I keep reading about softer mounts turning into donuts.
I wonder though if that donut issue is only with the v6 motors.
