Default Anyone combine the DTS and a Snub mount?

I have the DTS and was thinking of reinforcing it with snubby. I'll be doing my IC's soon and I'm trying to decide to spend a couple extra minutes putting in a snub mount too.

Only thing that gives me pause is the added vibration and/or increased probability of driveline breakage.

Thoughts?

Don't do it. Had this conversation before STFA. There needs to be some movement.

Default I have that setup and its awesome. I am moving out to NJ.....

if you wanted to take it for a ride your welcome to. I am moving to North Jersey about 20 minutes from GWB.

No vibration and the driveline feels so put together and solid. Also no play when your rowing through the gears.

Default yes

and so do many other... I did the snub before the DTS so i cant really provide any real impression. Over stock the snub was nice... still a little shaking when letting off the throttle... but the DTS definately corrected any weakness of the snub

BTW i have the AMS/Greedspeed type snub which a little bit different than the APR.

Default I've had both for a little while and can't notice a difference with the snub added...

the DTS by itself was a much more noticeable addition.

Default Thanks. That brings up another question: Which one combines best with the DTS?

Have all those who replied used the APR unit or the Neu or Greedspeed?
