Torque Damener

Just out of curiousity...are there any negative effects of this on our engine? Long term I'm really wondering if this is bad somehow for the engine. I would think that the engine torque being braced could cause some sort of damage. Just wondering if anybody has any info on this.......

its just like putting solid motor mounts in, I don't see how it could hurt it.

It's actually going to save your engine more stress then not. Because with wheel hop, we all know the effects that it can cause on your engine. So by adding the ingals td, you are going to save yourself from the wheel hop. In saving yourself from the wheel hop, if something minor like a vibration or something comes along, thats a lot better then having a tranny go on you.

I have never had a problem with my ingalls td and I absolutely love it. Minus my sportlines, its my only traction mod, and other then new tires, I really feel thats all I need currently.

I agree this was an awesome mod. I never once regretted putting this on to my car and I have had no problems with it.

The only concern i have with it is since it is really only bracing one side of the motor , it might put extra stress on the other mounts. It's just a guess. That said i have mine installed 90% of the time , i only take it out for long trips.
