Will the J's dampner help with the harmonic vibrations caused by the S/C?

I belive I've read that the J's engine damper wont fit with a supercharger because of where the charger itself is mounted (they both use the same hole on the engine on LHD). plus the J's strutbrace will not clear the comptech intake.

After installing the SC, I didn't really find a whole lot of vibration passed through the drivetrain before I built the new damper bracket. Afterward, Some of the normal gear lash noise was reduced, Sounding like it was being tranmitted more though the body. Defintely not gone though.

I believe more of the Comptech SC owners were complaining about vibration than Vortech owners.

cool, good job! I was always told it wasnt possible, but since I dont have a supercharger I couldnt even begin to imagine a way to do it. but now I know it can be done and I stand corrected.
