The Ingalls ETD is a solid piece and with proper install vibration and noise can be reduced to almost none. Also the ETD is adjustable or you can take it off when you arent at the track in a matter of five minutes or less.

I have the stiffy's on all 3 of our tC's with dynomat on all of them and I dont have one rattle in any car. Every now and then I get a little vib. in the steerign wheel if I get off the clutch too soon but nothing too noticable. I Love'em.

See 3 kits no issues 2 being pushed with a boosted motor. Solid mounts are an ok solution if you dont want the option of comfort for long drives or dates. Cause we all know you aint getting any if the vibration from your car is taking care of her already

Sounds like a plan. I had a lot of prospective plans for my car (suspension, sways, clutch, flywheel, HIDs...) but then I just decided to save now, and use the saved money to get a place and save some more to buy either an Evo or STI....whatever is better at the time of my purchase.

I have it at about 12-13...........a little stiff, but big difference in shifting.

The mazdaspeed3 isn't out around here in anywhere I know of in Florida.. The mazdaspeed6 is out, but not the 3.

And I've added alot more information in this thread than your useless comment.

I had mine on 10-11mm for about 4-5 months. Even a NA tC has alot of wheel hop.

The key to limit wheel hop is feathering of the clutch. Also I will be looking into the option of producing a few sets of high end traction bars for the Scion Tc

Check the DIY done by Kenon (sp) its very imformative. I have ran mine without dynamat since day one. The key to limiting vibrations isnt all in the dynamat. The key is to adjust the ETD's length correct.
