BEST Torque Damper / Front Motor Mount Set-up

I have only the blox front engine mount in my car. Everything you described is the same with mine. After 10k miles, it feels like somebody put the stock mount back on. The vibrations are gone at start up. I had to check if the blox mount is loose and it's still holding. Vibration at slow take off is no longer there unless if you engage below 2k rpm. Shifting is much easier and I have not missed a gear under heavy throttle.

+1 for Blox front motor mount, I run it and I really do like it. It has stressed out my rear mount though, so I am replacing it with a Powerflex. I know there will be vibration, but you just live with it.

I run the Blox Motor Mount along with a Gruppe-S TD.. I first drove with the Blox which again got from Speed Element.
Smooth Shifting was def. there at the expense of slight vibration at idle and take off. I got used to it though and so I went on installing the TD.
I was pretty skeptical about it as many folks told me they break but I threw it in anyway. If there was a diff. it probably was in my head as I didn't really notice anything at all.. it drove the same but the engine bay did look cooler though..
like its been said b4.. "it's a band aid"
I stick with just the Front Motor Mount for the money.. the TD is not worth the $$ for the result IMHO!
