Default ? for those with decent size cam

Does your engine shake really bad or are my motor mounts wore out. Also would putting in the prothane motor mounts stiffen it up at all?

Yes on shake ( before I went poly ), don't know about your mounts.

Yes, prothane will stiffen it up and transfer the shake to the car.

do you have a m6 or auto? if m6 does your shifter shake back and forth like 2"-3".

Check my signature above, but to answer the question it used to until I replaced the tranny mount with prothane.

I just installed mine and havn't had it tuned yet, but yes. Sometimes sitting at a stop while its in gear, its an A4, it shakes the hell out of me. I've read it goes away with a good tune though.

A good tune done by someone with HP Tuners or LS1 Edit will make it idle
much better! Well worth the cost IMHO!

prothane motor mounts are the ****, no more shifter slamming back and forth when you nail it! i have them on my car and would DEFINATLY recommend them. with the hood open and idling, you cant even tell its running besides the sound. its dead still. doesnt torque up when you rev it either.

i have a new factory trans mount, w/ prothane motor mounts. the poly trans mount i've heard causes alot of noise, and w/ the poly motor mounts, it shouldnt be moving much anyway.
