I should have done this first.

Yes.
The CPe RMM was the first mod I did, followed by the FSWERKS short shift kit.

Oh man that *clunk* really brings back *clunk* some memor—*CLUNK*

Yeah but still a lot better than having your whole drivetrain buck and flex whenever you build some boost.

yes, I was referring to clunking with the stock mount.

Ohh yeah. Makes me wonder why OEM mounts are so shitty.

This was a problem with the Mazdaspeeds of a decade ago. I assumed that was what this car was, but that part number in the photo is for 2013+ Fiesta turbo! It was an issue with my MS6 when it was stock; how it hadn’t been resolved 7 years later is beyond me.

Perhaps it is down to the inherent nature of a transverse mount? Longitudinal mounts likely don’t need to be made stiffer because they don’t flex in the same direction as the physical load of acceleration. Maybe engineers don’t account for people launching their cars so they do not feel the need to add to engine vibrations with harder mounts...could be the explanation?
