I am an '00 over 150K miles on them and motor mounts are just fine. This makes me how people keep blowing up their motor mounts!

Curious on how much torque your supercharged S2000's are making?

I dont think engine torque has anything to do with how an ETD functions. The word torque is used interchangeably but does not have the same meaning. It simply reduces any vibration, movement, or torque created by the motor in relation to the chassis. In doing so, i'd imagine this will help prolong the life of motor mounts by drastically reducing the stresses put on the mounts.

In the case of an ETD, torque means engine movement which is a direct result of the torque it produces while running. The damper dampens that movement much like the shocks dampen your springs movement. You are right, it would ease the load on the motor mounts prolonging their life in the long run. I'd like to get the M&M Honda ETD as it comes with a pre cut hole in the aluminium heat shield for the damper to fit through saving you cutting your stock shield.

Same here. However, if you want to put the kraftwerks belt cover on, then you need to cut off a small portion of it for clearance with the ETD. This is what I did, and it is working great.
