Official Ingalls "Stiffy" Torque Damper Thread
POST PICS OF YOUR STIFFYS AND YOUR EXPERIENCES WITH THEM!!!
i installed it about a week ago, and all i have to say it "wow". this thing is awesome. the car feels so much better when accelerating. launching from 4k feels so good, theres no wheel hop at all. it just spins the tires a little bit then grabs traction and you're off. i recommend this for anyone who doesnt mind a little bit of vibrating; a lot of times it doesnt vibrate at idle at all. the most annoying this about it though, is that when it does vibrate, it causes that hood latch to rattle on the hook thing. so i just wrapped the latch with some of that tennis racket grip tape stuff. overall, its a great product and everyone should get one
. and thanks to everyone that helped me with my install troubles and to _SKIN_ for the great deal.

i had an issue with my hood latch... but i think its different... it had alot of play forward and backward... so i just bought some longer screws and some large washers and anchored it through the existing holes.... it feels much more stable tho.....

Here's a picture of my stiffy. I originally had mine like Rennen's too, then saw the mistake and put the bulkhead side on the bottom of the mount. Much gooder that way. It's the closest shot I have after I fixed the install. Will post a better pic after I finish the other mods I'm in the middle of.
