UNBELEIVABLE!!! its made the car completely different, yes ther is vibration on tickover and low revs, but i will see how that pans out over the next few weeks and drop the torque settings.

Definately recommend this £15 mod to anyone, get it done!!

I didn't have the torque settings to hand when I fitted mine and, as I remember, I did all the bolts up to 30ft/lb. That's apparently 50% too much for the two horizontal bolts. I wouldn't say the vibration is excessive though. I may re-torque them all though for the sake of a comparison.

i did all bolts to 22lb and the centre bolt that runs between the 2 parts of the bush at 12lb.

Seems to be ok reallly,

Woahhh its double the price of the powerflex one mate!! i got the powerflex one for 15 quid and dont find it all that harsh now, its bedding in slightly but the results are fantastic.

Use half poly and half OEM if your worried about harshness, its a really easy job to do as well.

Not Really Bothered About Price . Was Gonna Fit It Myself Anyhow . Maybe Give It A Try And Then Post Up What I Think But Would Have Too Compare It With A Forge One . Will Keep Yous Informed When I Get It.
