Default engine damper on turbo S2000

Hello,

I have a NRG engine damper with the S2X puddymode bracket which i bought when i was N/A but never got arround to fitted. Now i am thinking to install it cause the engine under turboing moves quite a lot. I have a PFAB ELMT kit. Has anyone fitted an engine torque damper with this setup?

Thank you for your reply. Yes it cannot fit with my intake pipe. So i am looking for another solution if anyone has done it. Most possibly if anyone has customize brackets and fit the engine damper in another position

Thank you for your reply. I chaged my motor mounts with new before 500 miles. My oil turbine feed line was getting unscrewed funilly enough continiously due to the strech the engine was under load. I changed it now and i want to avoid this to happen again. So i wanted to improve this by using an engine torque damper and not race motor mounts which vibrate a lot. Check the following video it shows how much strech the engine is getting under load i suspect with OEM motor mounts. It's not my car but is a good example. Check the exhausts pipes from the wastegates under load.

Don't the inovative mounts have a high failure rate though. Im looking for a etd mount for my pfab setup as well. Has anyone tried mounting one on the other side? Maybe to the intake or alternator bracket.

I would look into poly mounts or something along those lines, should stiffen up and not torque around as much.

Well i was passenger in an S2000 with innovative 75A and it was like being in a tractor I do not know how the 65A would be but i will take your experience for it. I think the torque damper if someone can fit it is a better solution and does not cause any vibration, so i would look for that solution first
