Just make sure you use a flex pipe on your downpipe and you should be fine. I installed mine while the motor was out, so very easy. LOL. I did have to remove the passenger side when I installed turbo, and did it all from bottom of car on jack stands. Very easy to do from bottom.
I am watching the mounts for deformation now that I am turbo'd.

We'll see....

So, the Innovative mounts come in 60A, 75A and 85A? Is there a 65A or 70A? Maybe that would be more suitable for boosted application being that they would be stiffer than the 60A but not so aggressive that it would cause a lot of vibrations. I'm concerned with the added vibrations of the 75A mounts causing the manifold to crack a lot easier. Do you guys think this would happen?
Spoolin, race guys use SOLID mounts and don't experience cracked manifolds from vibration.

Nothing I'd sweat.

I need some of these too.

All good info guys.
I already have my new stock one in with another on the way thanks to Lee (03SuperS2K) thanks Lee!

If I have any problems in the future it will be to the 75A's.

I ordered mine custom from innovative. I got 60a for tranny and driver side and 75a for passenger side as turbo manifold is on that side and that side takes most of the brunt as all the engine dampers go too that side too so i just got that mount with a different stiffness

^^Hmmm....Thats interesting. Do you think that combining different durometer of materials to different areas of the car like that will work well or would it be better to just get them all in 75A durometer?

The way i looked at it is the tranny n driver side mount are stock stiffness and the 75 would be a close equivalent to a stock stiffness with a torque dampner

I see. This may be something for me to look into if it will work well. I wonder if anyone else has tried it. What worries me is the one 75A mount taking the brunt of the impact and the others being so soft that they will make the way the engine moves around be kind of off balance but I dont know.

So which set dis you go with the 75 or 85's?

I just put a new stock mount in but if it brakes again I'm going to be looking for a different option.
I just got 75A installed. Its not even bad like everyone says I acutally like the small vibration lmk we can meet up

I wonder if the Innovative 60A mounts will cause a lot more vibration that could cause the manifolds to prematuraly crack sooner? How easy are these mounts to put on? Do you have to pull a lot of turbo parts to get them in or can you go from under the car while its on a lift and install them?
Dont get 60a expectially if you have bottom mount turbo my 60A started to melt and vibrate like crazy in less than two weeks 75A FTW

That doesn't sound like to bad an idea.

I am ANAL about cabin vibrations, I noticed a little just going to the diff collars.
