I just want some quick responses, what motormount works better? I dont care about NVH I already have a C-PE flex and im trying to see if i will benefit from replacing it with the Whoosh Race-Spec mount. Screenshot_20210418-111527_Gallery.jpg

Do you track the car, any racing or is this more of a daily? I just put in a Torque Solutions RMM and honestly I'm switching back to stock, I felt like it helped putting power to the ground and shifting but I'm not currently tracking it. I do some autox but my car is stock with some 200tw tires. I couldn't imagine having the race spec on the street without putting out serious power. IDK if that helps, good luck.

if you already have a cp-e there's no beneifit to replaicng it unless you want less vibrations
the mounts with less vibrations than cp-e would be
whoosh street-spec
mountune
AWR 62a
vibra technocs fast road formula

+1 My Mountune RMM was great for ~40k but then I noticed some movement. Replaced it with a cp-e and I expect it to last for at least as long as the Mountune. Fwiw, I run ~12 track sessions each year, so it's not pampered.

Im not tracking it but from a dig it slams pretty hard when i drop the clutch. I assumed the race spec would help with that.

I had that same issue but as soon as soon as I installed the transmission bushing, shifting has become smoother for me. Even though most people don't go through the trouble of upgrading all the mounts, I personally think it's worth it. If noise is a big issue for you, I would install additional soundproofing on the car. It only cost like 60 for some padding.

You SHOULD care about NVH. Some motor miunts have been known to produce false knock.

If you don't mind changing them often, put the OEM back on (new one). Get a couple - they're cheap and shouldn't cause NVH until you're shifting takes a dump.
