Hi all,

Does this have any bad side effects other than the vibration in the cabin.
I would suspect since the mount is harder it would put more force on the bracket that it is installed on.
Could this cause the brackets to break

Thanks

Ummm , you have a CVT ?
I dont think you should be installing a snub with that tranny.

You can install a snub on a CVT all you want... it will still help with releasing throttle...

CVTS are already smooth so yes it really doesnt do much.

It will help the initial press and the let off the of the pedal.

just installed the APR snub mount today. WOW, what a difference. Acceleration seems better, more power seems to be reaching the ground. Installation didn't take too long, maybe 20mins but well worth it. I'm in Canada, so including shipping came to around $120CAD, a very good investment!!

Just ordered one too (since the front is about to be disassembled anyway, figured its time for one as well).

Thanks for the info!

Well I ordered one from APR just a minute ago.

Well one reason why I need a snub mount is because the stock one is bad. it has some cracks in it. And also I can feel that cars response of the line is jerky. If I launch hard (just a little faster than normal) the car jerks and I have to let of the gas back and then press softly.
