Thumbs up What is the most bad a$$ combo of motor and tranny mounts that I can get?

Well, my engine is shaking pretty bad now and it's probably due to having 100 hp over stock and hard track launches. So I have to figure out the best combo of mounts for my AUTOMATIC tranny and 2.4 engine. I dont care about cost I just want to buy for the best quality. I know turbo tech racing sells some and also i've heard of bwoody selling some but I dont know what the 2.4 and AUTO tranny can use. Somebody please hook me up with the best parts for me to buy. Thanks.

PICS are on 2nd Page...

I want all bolt on parts, i dont wanna do any kind of custom 3m filling. I think it would be wise to upgrade the whole mount but im not sure if anyone makes them for our auto's.

In a recent poll the Turbo Tech Racing upper mount compared to B Woodys was like 23 for us 6 for B woody....

The design, function, and form of our mount has been proven to be the best

We offer a complete replacement upper engine mount. We only offer "bushing" inserts for the tranny.. which install very quickly and easy.

Ok, can you give me the links to these exact parts that fit my Auto tranny? Is there a Automatic package deal? Also, since I want full replacements of all my mounts do you know where the ones you dont offer can be found that fit my car? You said you only have upper mounts right? Where can I get lower engine mounts?

There is not a replcable lower mount...

Here is the Turbo Tech Racing Upper mount:

Email us a photo of your stock upper mount to:

Aaron@TurboTechRacing.com

We will verify it will fit.

IMO it is looks, I have never broke a stock mount casting. They both do the same as far as performance.

just get the prothane front and rear tranny inserts and then the engine mount that TTR has

theres really no reason to replace the whole mount itself, whats inside the mount is what really matters.

Thats what I wanted to know. Thanks. I dont want to waste money on a whole mount if the insert performs just as good. I dont need a good looking mount i want a good performing mount.

Dude...both you mounts are fine...The front one your are showing always has that lil tear there...that is just excess flash from when the mount was molded. the rear should looks liek that too...The way u can tell is cause it is sooo thin there...its just excess flash.

Also your stock top mount looks fine as well...If it was busted there would be hydraulic fluid all over ur engine bay next to the mount cause they are a hydraulic filled mount from the factory. I can verify this when my dude made me my solid upper and punctured the stock top...and fluid went everywhere.
