    Hey mate, Thanks for putting up this really great video. Its really refreshing to see people doing well-thought-out 'hacks' on Porsches - so many Porsche owners just buy shit sold to them and never stop to consider little improvements on top of stock components - really great stuff, keep it up man!

    Man, this was a pretty cool video. I’ve never heard of this hack, but if it works and the polyurethane holds up for a while this is a pretty slick way to “tune” your engine mounts to what’s right for each individual. Thanks for sharing!

    You’re becoming the 997 engine mount master!! Your videos are so clear and practical. One question…what is your opinion on the criticism of semi/solid engine mounts being bad for engines because they can cause knocking? I saw that in another video and in some threads. But at the same time in Rennlist I also see data suggesting it’s not an issue.

    I have no proof one way or the other. But, the car definitely feels faster with the semi solid mounts. It could be a placebo effect, but throttle response and body roll are impressed for sure. I don't think the vibrations are harsh enough to set off the knock sensor.
