stasis solid motor mounts
What's the story with the stasis solid motor mounts. What would these be like for the street? Is s4 mounts the only other alternative? How bout rs4?

Just missed ?? a GB for the RS4 mounts thru Mike @ Pure MS .. maybe give him a holler and see?
Failing that, ECS has them for a couple $ more. The deal with Mike was mostly free shipping...

If the knock sensor readings hit their limits because of the stiffer mounts
then the timing being pulled will increase. The key is to make sure you keep them down as much as you can with either motor mount. Wont gain anything from a mount that is too stiff for the setup.

Of course if the limits are reached you'll have issues but that doesn't seem to be an issue with the
stiffer mounts. All the data I've seen show increased volatage but no (more than with the prior set up) timing pull.

those cars make a ton of tq, wouldn't they be more apt to have problems
with the stiffer mounts than us? Or does it have more to do with the tq to engine weight ratio?

I'd imagine the heavier V6 and the heavier V6 torque would benefit more from the stiffer mounts than
our little 1.8s would.
Solid mounts might well cause timing pull but with the hydrualic mounts I think the higher torque Stage 3's would benefit .. help with the driveline flopping around. I think it's worth a shot to try 'em ...
