when i launch from first gear into a sharp left turn i hear a noise like my rpm's dropping and the car shaking, for a short time, till i bring my rpm's up. I'm thinking it might be engine mounts. It's only when a do a sharp left turn and when I'm up a steep hill going straight. Does anybody have any ideas or has anybody had this problem?

I'm hearing a shaking noise too since I've installed my engine mounts under similar situations that you've described.

I thought it was a loose sway bar, tie rod end or CV joint going bad.

I have a couple questions. First off, when i launch from first gear into a sharp left turn i hear a noise like my rpm's dropping and the car shaking, for a short time, till i bring my rpm's up. I'm thinking it might be engine mounts. It's only when a do a sharp left turn and when I'm up a steep hill going straight. Does anybody have any ideas or has anybody had this problem? Another question is if It is the engine mounts then I should probably take out my eibachs before getting service at the fealer, right? So, i dont void my warranty.

springs won't void the warranty....especially because there is no relation to the motor mounts.

yeah, check your cv's and alignment.

the alignment might cause this sound?

So I should not worry bout the springs then?
