Interest In A 2nd Engine Damper Group Buy?

Just checking the temperature of the masses with this thread. I've received a ton of PM's from people wanting dampers so post up if you're serious and I'll start a list. If we can get 25 people in we'll move forward officially with one.

Would be the same price as the last one roughly $165 shipped for the full kit. EDIT: We're throwing in a set of the polyurethane bushings for FREE to anyone who orders in this group buy.

01. Blingting
02. uPnoRthACme
03. tw1st
04. lgnd
05. Stevieray
06. Blood Riot (Tony)

Just a plug for the product.

Thorough testing of this damper has led me to believe that it is a great mod for the money. Especially for a manual Legend. I have it set max right now and plan on swapping the harder bushings I already have that Blackend sells seperately.

Do it.

I need one damper for sure and two poly bushings.

I'll make a thread on our forum maybe other members will buy.

Thanks!

Thread created, maybe I can boost your sales a little bit.

Not sure how a dyno would show that you have better throttle response and less stress on your engine and tranny mounts.

I will have more later for sale for $175 plus shipping, and the stiffer polyurethane bushings will be an additional $10.

I have been running solid front rubber mounts for about a week now. I'll give a status update after I get a chance to beat on it a little bit. I've been really busy between work and garage. I pretty much only get to drive to work and back. I didn't get in the first GB because of this

LMK - and like I said before, I plan on keeping these in stock so if you're interested later on I should have them. And I still have PLENTY of packing material to make sure it's not damaged in transit...

Understood. LMK what he's thinking on Tuesday.

Paypal business account FTW! Gotcha added.




Once we get 25 or so buyers ready to jump off, I'll post up payment instructions and start taking color preferences.

I know this is a seriously dumb question, but what does the damper actually do? And please don't just say "it dampens the engine".
