  • NRG Engine Damper Review

    Product: NRG Engine Damper
    Bought from: Ebay.com
    Date: October 24 2011
    Price: $100 (with shipping)

    Quality of Product: 10 (out of 10)
    Ease of Use: 10
    Installation time: Took me 5 hours
    Recommend?: Yes

    Pros:
    -Fixed the throttle respond
    -No more engine movement
    -quick pick up
    -fast shipping

    Cons:
    It was hard to take the original Damper off because i had to saw out the bolts but after that everything falls in place. No biggie

    Additional Notes:
    You will need to buy additional bolts,washer,and thats why i said i wasted a 100 dollars but well worth it thou

    I'm posting this mainly because this actually works great for our cars especially with the MMI installed also

      Ha, mine just broke a few months ago, personally im going to fab up my own, not sure how it bolts to the motor but on the 3.6L its a piece of plastic that the damper bolts to, going to make my own out of alum. and get a damper from work that will last

        I wouldnt recomend doing this modd without doing MMI's. The damper is more of a supporting modd.

            Ive had mine for about 3 years. I have also had the MMI's just as long. I think the people that do them dont do the inserts. Thats why they breaking. The engine moves to much and it tears them apart.

              ^^ Exactly what i was thinking Before i had MMI my engine moved so much it pulled the Ground wire off the starter. And the car would shut off. I can imagine putting the stiffer damper on and it breaking trying to do the work the MM do.

                Good review!
                Was the damper you purchased for any specific vehicle, or are they generic fit?

                  well i bought the one that said it was for a honda civic but all of them look the same to me so there is not difference really and i have notice a big difference also for example i have the Racing MMI installed before installing this damper and the engine still kinda move. Now that i installed the damper the engine does not move at all and the pull off is wonderful omg the respond is beautiful

                            -No more battles with the remote


                            Remote responsiveness as in literally the remote start, or throttle response? No more battles with the remote....?
