Engine torque damper
What's the latest feedback with these?
Will they improve things the amount people state and how much should you pay for one?
Many thanks

Iv not got one, but looking to get one. Read a lot of feedback from people to say it does make a small noticeable difference.
As for price...its the same as with most thing. You get what you pay for.
If you have lots of cash to splash....J's damper.
Mid range...Tegiwa
Small budget......Leave it or get a cheap fleabay special. (Could be a good damper, could be as good as a solid bar..)
Sure people with them fitted could give more details.

Dont have one either, would like one though, not at the above price.

I thought I needed one and ended up greasing my gear shift ball and it cured difficult gear changes at high revs (2nd to 3rd not being able to find the slot) The other option if your engine is still moving around is to check your engine mounts aren't perished, if you've lost oil out of on it'll rock around nicely.

And it's NUMBER of people not AMOUNT, unless you are referring to a great pile of people. (grammar police)
Imagine a bucket of sand, it's the number of grains or the amount of sand.

I had an Ingalls 'Stiffy' and found it did help; but not as much as you'd think.
Be careful though as they can induce a slight vibration at certains engine speeds if on the stiffest setting.
I went for the stiffy as it was/is the only ETD that doesn't require cutting the heat shield

I've got the ingalls stiffy on mine...... my car shifts pretty damn smooth, i felt the shifting could be improved slightly beforehand so it must have done a little...i think lol.
I'm pretty tuned in with how the car sounds and feels. when i first installed it i could hear a pitch change / vibration when on the throttle at say 4-5k, but can no longer sense that. i have mine on its 'out of the box' setting.... i may have a play around this weekend and stiffen it up a touch.
