Default Torque Dampers
I'm looking at these Torque Dampers and I'm a little confused about how they fit to the strut tower.

I have a Comptech Titanium STB (cos it clears my HKS intake kit), do I have sufficient fixing space for a Torque Damper?

Below is the J'S Racing Torque Damper, but you need the J's Racing STB to fix it... is there any Torque Dampers out there that will fit my Comptech STB?

That photo aint an S2000 ......

You can get the J's racing damper with brackets that mean you don't require the J's STB.

Stops the engine moving around on it's mounts as you rev.

Can't see the advantage for a car which is RWD and has such a light flywheel anyway, but it looks in the engine bay I suppose.....
