Product Description
The RSS Tarmac Series Performance Engine Mounts are designed for the Porsche driver who demands the absolute maximum in precision handling, feedback and control from their chassis.
With factory hydraulic engine mounts, the drivetrain will move independent of the chassis during acceleration, deceleration and cornering loads. This movement can upset the balance of the vehicle and create negative handling effects.
Our performance engine mounts minimize these effects by utilizing specialized polyurethane bushings which offer a firmer, more direct driving feel with optimum feedback. This upgrade will not adversely effect ride quality or cause knock sensor issues commonly associated with solid engine mounts.
NOTE: For 2010-11 GT3 & RS models that have the factory option installed Dynamic Engine mounts, these are NOT intended to be used as a replacement.

Features
Sharky's note: The 996 / 997 is now over 15 years old and one of the first bushings to "go" are the factory engine mounts that support the rear-mounted engine. Not only is the associated slop / performance and issue but even visually your exhaust / tips will hang lower than they are meant to! This is one of _the_ most common replacement / upgrades for any 996 / 997. Can be done in an hour.
