Question Topspeed Pro 1 Engine Torque Damper


http://www.injectedperformance.com/e...h.aspx?BID=106

Has any body try this engine damper yet?? I searched and I come up is the Stillen and eBay engine dampers, that everybody talks about. But I didn't want that one for 2 reasons:
  1. It's a PITA to install. ( I installed one on my friends G)
  2. When the time comes, it would have to be removed to fit the Airinx filter there. (Hint, Hint)

My G35 Stillen Strut Bar rubs the top of my upper plenum on the driver side. Mostly because of my plenum spacer. In my pic below, do notice the white line near the bar, above the oil cap. That part is bear, because all the paint has been rubber out.

It seems that it would only make your car tilt a little more or quicker when you rev it.
