Whilst we recommend the VWR Lower Engine Mount upgrade alone for road cars, to harness more significant power increases, and transfer that power to the track, this full Uprated Drivetrain Mount Set and Torque Link will give a much more solid drive, and crucially add durability to any high-powered or hard-driven car.
The whole engine and gearbox (the drivetrain) is located in just three places. The two upper mounts support the entire weight of the engine/gearbox, plus a third Lower Mount underneath the engine.
The full Uprated Drivetrain Mount Set are a CNC-machined, fully engineered replacement set of three mounts designed to greatly decrease engine and transmission movement, ensuring clean transfer of power to the track.
The risk of wheel-hop under hard acceleration is greatly reduced as the whole engine and 'box assembly is firmly prevented from juddering when wheelspin occurs and through aggressive gearchages.
KEY TECH SPECS:
ADDED STRENGTH
Essential upgrade for modified cars to keep the drivetrain properly located
TRANSFORM THE DRIVE
Transform the feeling of your car, through eliminating wheel-hop off the line and through aggressive gearchanges
HIGH QUALITY
CNC machined in the UK, highest quality materials and construction, including a full replacement lower mount (not an insert) and replacement Torque Arm
EXTENSIVE DEVELOPMENT
Careful development of the durometer (stiffness) rating of the polymer used, meaning less compromise on NVH
RACE PROVEN
Developed and proven on race cars – refined for road
EXTREME
For road cars, we recommend just the Uprated Lower Engine Mount; but for high-powered or track cars, this full Uprated Mount Set is the ultimate choice.
PERFORMANCE
/// For those with high-power cars or who use their car regularly on track, the VWR Uprated Engine Mount Set is truly one of the most worthwhile upgrades to the driving dynamics of their car.
/// The Uprated Full Set of Engine Mount stiffens the whole location of the drivetrain greatly to give a much tighter, sharper feeling to your car. It removes the loose feeling when coming on and off-throttle during aggressive gearchanges, and banishes wheel-hop under hard acceleration as the whole engine and 'box assembly judders.
/// This adds strength to the drivetrain, helping to protect from future wear and breakages. Rather than some aftermarket 'push in' bushes which crudely fill the voids in the original factory mounts, the VWR unit is a completely redesigned replacement mount assembly and torque link.
/// Of course, with a full mount set there is more noise from the drivetrain coming into the cabin, and more than from the VWR Lower Mount alone. But most keen drivers are happy to accept this compromise to ensure that they are more 'connected' to their car.
