TRANSMISSION MOUNT INSERT
996/997



The OEM transmission mount was designed for ride comfort and is prone to sagging and tearing – above all, it is a detriment to performance. Its empty voids allow for too much transmission movement, resulting in sloppy handling, numbed responsiveness, and imprecise shifting. Racecars utilize a solid metal mount to mediate this, which is impractical for street use as it transfers extreme noise and vibration into the cabin.

So how do you achieve the benefits of a solid mount while retaining daily drivability? Function-First Performance offers the only available solution for the Porsche 996 and 997. Our durable urethane rubber insert fills and fortifies the empty voids of the OEM mount to prevent premature bushing wear and undesirable transmission movement, all while transmitting minimal noise and vibration.

The result? Handling is taut and predictable; power delivery is immediate and smooth; gear changes are crisp and confident.


Installation can be completed with basic hand tools in about one hour. Pressing out the stock transmission mount bushing is NOT necessary.

Sounds interesting.

Few questions.

1. Has anyone tried this and willing to feedback ?

2. Do you have any instructions as to how to fit ?

thanks

Is this available yet for 2007 997.1 TT? (manual). I don't see it on the drop down yet unless I missed it.
