Hearing 70's and winter made me chuckle a little lol. Its currently 18* here. That's cool I'm glad it made a difference. It's all the little things that add up

Oh man that’s cold up there. You’re probably not driving the cars too much huh?

@@TheAllAmericanDriver They’re all gone I sold the Fox a few weeks ago. I’d rather to traveling than build cars. There’s a lot that happened this summer to lead to all of this. I’ll do a channel update shortly. Usually summer cars up here are done around mid October.
I have both black and yellow Eurocompulsion POWERFLEX LOWER ENGINE MOUNT BUSHING KITS. The inclusion of a bushing alone is an upgrade. Having both bushings provides 3 levels of stiffness (OEM upgraded, Mid, and Hard). What I noticed is much less engine movement. The different settings enabled varying stiffness. The black (most stiff) mount is rock solid and created really stiff shifts. I don't notice any change in shift timing, just response from transmission to wheels. I think this may cause easier loss of traction due to the quicker transfer from trans to wheel. I kept the black in but if I wanted to make the 4C feel more subdued I can take out the insert and leave in the bushing. Good video.

Yeah overall I feel it’s a good upgrade. I’m on a pretty big and sticky tire, so I still have more traction than power.
Nice job on the video. Are you planning to do coilovers? That is the next upgrade I want to do, but they are spensive! Hopefully you do, I would love to see a good review on the pros and cons. Keep the videos coming!

I have a few more things to do with the car before I consider coil overs. In the future it's on the list, probably KW V3s, but I don't know 100% yet.
Awesome video bro!!! Btw this is Shawn from the ford store in Bremerton

Good to see you in the comments! Hope you’re doing well.
Currently own a turbo S2K car makes 520hp. Been looking at 4c’s ever since I seen one and was wondering if you could share your pros and cons for both cars. Found your channel n you got a new sub

Welcome to the channel. I miss my S2K a lot, I’m sorta actively searching for another. I’ll touch on this topic in depth in a future video. But briefly, S2K at least in N/A form is more fun, Alfa 4C feels more special.
Do you have the Alfaworks suspension blocks ? How much caster are you running

This is just a one piece lower engine mount. Made a big difference. I’m not sure if there are more options, but this is a good noticeable upgrade.
