Why do you need an engine mount when you do an exhaust?

ABD = Energy Suspension

With the exception of Z-engineering and VWMS of course.

I'm guessing "they get their own made" by Energy Suspension...they look EXACTLY the same.

ABD uses ES mounts I confirmed this yesterday when I checked my new ES mount part number with the old ABD circular mount I had lying around from my VR6, and they were the same EXACT number.

What's the part number for the ES Motor Mounts? Best place to order?

That's what I thought, but it said "Lower torque position only" and I didn't know what the heck that meant.

so are the autotech mounts also ES mounts? I want the "softest" mounts out there with the least vibration.......
Re: votexers what engine mounts are you guys using? (JettaManDan)

I use one Autotech and one stock - good for reducing wheel hop and almost no cabin vibrations... http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

The VWMS mounts are less harsh than the ES and others, but its like $150.

i should have made it clearer, abd said they did use es at one time, but now use a different manufacturer. whether or not this is true i don't know, like i said they look the same.

I think this is the best question asked so far in this post. Unless he's planning on getting a DP that rubs I don't see why he'd need them. Who knows?

I want to know which one to use if I only use one also. I have the Autotech and am finding the vibration upon takeoff unbearable. I haven't done my exhaust either but its not a stupid mod. The difference in power transfer and shifting is unbelievable.
