Installed the Stillen Engine Damper. I could tell a immediate difference in shifts and feel, both at low and high rpm. Shifts were smoother and more crisp, less vibration through the pedals as well. Downside is, since the damper is now effectively transferring engine movement to the frame, small rattles are now more noticeable. Rattles under the dash as more pronounced at idle. Going to see if the dealership can get rid of those.

If you are going to install this by yourself, have patience...a lot of it. Getting the damper through the B bracket with the bolt is a PITA. A little advice: remove the 10mm bolt holding the coolant tank and move it out of the way, this will give you more room to put the bolt through the bracket and tighten it.

It's pretty self-explanatory with Stillen's directions.
