I did the "upgrade" about 4 weeks ago and really like the change. I like the sound and there is very little (in my car) additional noise at cruising speeds. It does soud to me much more pleasing to my ear under heavy throttle application.

Everyone has there own subjective likes and dislikes...I think this upgrade is exactly as Tom reported.

Well Eric- its been awhile since I went to the dentist. I guess I'm due! Besides, there is someone out there that would want them should I decide I don't - I may just put them in my wife's cab!!

Would someone please explain what causes the change in sound? How do RS motor mounts change the sound and even throttle response of the car?

I'm in. The car's been begging for the RS mounts ever since I got it... if I'd listened to the voices sooner then I'd have missed this great deal (assuming it materializes).

Hi Phil,

Hmmm that's a good point, thanks for bringing that up Phil (to be honest I don't remember the complete list of modifications on that car ). I'll check tomorrow. Thanks again Phil

Hahaha hanging out with Kim is a lot of fun but when he started asking me if I want to get a ride in his YZ, or when he told me that I can drive it one of these days (thanks Kim )... I just had to scratch my head and think twice because I don't want to drive his car and end up wanting a 3.8 engine and Moton suspension (among some other nice things he has on his car) then yes my wife will kill me if I come to that point hehehe
