Installed Powerstick Today... Nice

RedefinedWRX · 03-21-2007, 10:23 PM

I just installed my Ingalls Powerstick today, seems like a nice product!

I did notice a little more viberation sound with it in the interior. But hard shifting between 1'st and 2nd feels much better, you can tell there is more power going to the ground and not being lost in the mount, very hard and firm shifts now.

Anyone else have anything to say about this product? Notice any more noice being transfered to the fire wall from the engine?

I have been thinking about one as well, and I liked that someone has now reviewed it.

This is what the actual mount looks like :

Nothing too special, but very strong. I do like the heim joint on the motor end (it allows the motor to move side to side a little, but because of the fluid feal of the heim joint it does not transfer any of this motion into the interior or the shifter anymore. The other end (firewall end) is a huge heavy duty poly mount. I tried to move this thing with a long screwdriver and it was not going to budge. You can also adjust the length. Tho the directions tell you to make it the same length as the stock mout I am sure it has its purpose. Maybe to preload the mount so it is even stffer... I am not sure yet. As far as the install went, you have to remove your intercooler..... this was actually very very easy for me and the total install only took about 45min.

I got PN 93181 (polyurethane bushing) Poly is NOT recommended for street use. I dont know why they say this on there web site, It really is not harsh.

I am still seeing nothing but good things with this product. It seems to really take the shock out of the drivetrain when shifting hard. No wheel hop on the front wheels, smoother shifting. All good so far.

But the rattle it makes is getting worse, I have checked all the bolts, I think I just might need to readjust the length of it so it positions the bolt further from the transmission mount support.
