I installed a set of Corksport Motor Mount Inserts on my 2010 MS3 today.
Instructions: Very straight forward and self-explanatory. I found out that after reviewing the instructions that we didn't need to remove the bold from the engine mount to the tranny bracket.
I followed the directions to a T otherwise, and it took me a total of 10 minutes to install on a large lift. In fact it took me longer to round up the tools and get the car on the lift (our runners are low) than it did to install.
Product: Packaged nicely, included a sticker, shipped well. The inserts were very hard/stiff and cleanly manufactured. They literally slid right into the motor mount with little to no effort and fit flush. A+ on quality!
Results: Obviously, these will take a while to break in but the difference in the drivetrain is night and day. Engine rock is about 70-80% eliminated, wheel hop is all but gone, and I chirped like mad in 2nd and in 3rd when I got on the boost. I did notice some minor vibration when sitting at idle, but this is expected with any sort of solid insert/mount. I'll keep an eye on it to make sure it's not getting worse and will get my car up on the lift in a few days to make sure the torque spec remains.
Summary: I love this product. Best $44 I've spent so far. The car is way more fun to drive, doesn't feel like it's on marshmallows, and has an all around tighter feel to the driving profile.
I recommend these to anyone who is on a budget, wants the performance close to that of a solid mount without the extra hassle!
Derrick, Jason, John. BRAVO!
