Just finished installing it. Honestly a small difference in NVH, almost undetectable. What low amount of tire hop my tuned CVT had is now absolutely gone and there is a very noticeable increase in throttle response in higher RPMs. Down the road I might try out the whiteline inserts. Pretty happy.Type R RMM just arrived today, bought it used for a good deal, will be installing later.
Went with the Type R Rear motor mount because most of the after market stuff is a little more stuffer than I'd like, it's more expensive, honestly if I wanted to go stiffer I can just get inserts for it. Looking forward to installing it later today when it cools off (Texas Heat.)
I also ordered a Mishimoto intercooler last night off Amazon. Looking forward to installing that later as well.

I cut that plastic piece as well -- no issues 1 1/2 years later.Just finished installing it. Honestly a small difference in NVH, almost undetectable.

On the other hand... Wow that plastic piece of BS that covers the RMM bolt further back and a portion of the car is annoying. I didn't want to remove it to just take one Bolt out so I ended up just cutting down the middle of it with a knife slightly because I do not care about it. LOL

Was thinking of doing this, since I'm going to be under the car installing a Type R subframe brace anyway. Wonder if it'd be a noticeable improvement on an Si.Type R RMM just arrived today, bought it used for a good deal, will be installing later.

Totally recommend type R mount, has made a huge difference, and if you're going to do the type r subframe, make sure you also do front tower strut, rear sway bar, end links, and etc so that you feel a huge improvement all at once if you haven't already.Was thinking of doing this, since I'm going to be under the car installing a Type R subframe brace anyway.

Awesome, I'll look into those. Been looking for some new mods, while trying to keep things OEM+.Totally recommend type R mount, has made a huge difference, and if you're going to do the type r subframe, make sure you also do front tower strut, rear sway bar, end links, and etc so that you feel a huge improvement all at once if you haven't already.
Nice touch! Are those clips made of metal? Got a link for them?I installed a DIY radiator shroud washers kit to match my other engine bay details. Also posted a thread for those interested https://www.civicx.com/forum/threads/diy-baysavers-radiator-shroud-washer-kit.76842/post-1159385. Couldn't be happier considering it cost less than 5$ and took an hour!![]()
