Just wanted to say my TVS came in, shipped pretty fast. Got it the other day and couldnt wait to see it. Looks awesome, installed it yesterday but ran into a issue (not with the supercharger) So i havent seen what it can do yet. Also i got the email that my rotated mounts will be here on the 16th, which is awesome because we have a cobalt meet at the castrol speedway on the 18/19th. One question about that though, heard rumors (i asked TTR as well and they denie it) But people are saying i might have issues if i tried installed Stage 2 Rotated Mounts with TTR's Solid Engine Mount. Can you confirm this? But anyways i just wanted to say thanks OTTP. Look foward to buying more stuff from you guys!

And just a quick picture of my new favorite mod (yes i know my engine bay is dirty right now)

No pics at werk. What issue did you run into? Mine was fairly easy to install. Modified the MAP sensor and that was pretty much it.

I have had a few customers with issue's, the ttr mount is not needed with the rotated mounts as it does nothing more than look pretty and add vibes.

accidently broke the fuel rail... I went loosen off that huge bolt so i can get it out of the way, its seized on. So the damn end to the fuel rail came off. Need a new fuel rail.

Yikes. that's no good.

I'm running the Stage 2 Trans mounts and the Ingalls. Should be as smooth as a glass now.

i had the ingalls td but i took it off to put the engine mount in. I'm going to do tests to see what gives me better traction, i dont mind the vibs. I know how the car runs stock, i know how it runs with just the TD. Now i have the TD out and the engine mount in. I'll test to see how it goes, then take it out and put the stock one in, run just with the rotated mounts, then add the TD, take that out and then run with the engine mount + rotated mounts.


And yea in the the pic above u can see the part of the fuel rail thats apart. it wont go back on. looks like it does but it cant get a complete seal. Thought i fixed it but when i fired the car up, gas shot all over the place. Going to some Salvage yards tomorrow to find a new one. Shouldnt be to hard, Both the Cobalt SS/SC and the Ion's have the same rail

BUMP.

Has anyone used the TTR engine mount with the ottp stage one mounts?

yes you will run in to troubles. i ran the stage2s for a while too see what the problem was exactly. and what it is is that the ottp mounts not only move the engine, but hold it in place a hell of a lot better than the factory trans mounts. and simple physics says that when an object cannot move one direction, it moves another. so those front to back vibes transfer to side to side. inwhich case the ttr mount will prohibit that movement. and i could visually see the poly insert of the ttr mount being pushed out towards the passenger fender. so for ***** sake i machined it out just to see how far it goes. thing damn near pushed itself about .125"-.250" inches out towards the passenger fender, vib'd like a ****, and had slight wheel hop. so i loosened up all the mount bolts, took the ttr out and replaced it with the factory mount, tightened everything back up. vibs went down, stock mount didn't push at all, and all wheel hop gone.


*not doggin' on TTR, just plain and simple they aren't compatible. i'll get pics in a second. gotta search for them

I'm running the ETD and the stage 2 mounts, get some more vibs cuz of the ETD, but some people told me thats the combo to run or just the ottp mounts by themselves

don't judge the mill job i did, wasn't goin for pretty
but the last picture shows just how much lateral travel the TTR mount allowed AFTER milling. so just think of how much force was being applied. the stock mount takes that force and dispurses it throughout itself. keeping the vibs down and the wheel hop outa there.

Has anyone ran the OTTP rotated stage 2 trans mounts with the ZZP Solid engine mount? I just want to make sure that the same thing will not happen to the ZZP solid engine mount like it did to the TTR solid engine mount.

Is It ok to run ttr engine mounts and stage 1 ottp mounts though???

You can't run either mount with them.
