I'm doing it to help avoid exhaust rattling and test pipe cracking issues

Any good places anyone can recommend to get the Stillen damper? How much do they go for usually?

Anyone use the generic eBay damper, or should I just spend a couple extra bucks to get something we've seen before and can trust. Or I could just be a guinea pig

i'd say get the generic cause i don't think anyone has one, and i don't want to spend 130 bucks on a mini-shock absorber... let me know if you get one of the generics and where. WeaponR makes one and since I am most likely getting their short ram I figured might as well grab an engine damper, so maybe try them (something new)?

The Stillen is the best reviewed out there. It bolts up to stock holes and no other mods required. It sits nicely behind things and is not in the way at all. It is hugely effective. Why risk disappointment or issues for something tried and true for a few dollars extra.

I love mine!
