Title: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: AV6NHBP6SPD on May 04, 2009, 09:43:19 AM i guess it belongs here since motor mounts are in same category
is it worth it to get it? Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: pigpig000 on May 04, 2009, 02:17:54 PM ^trust me~~it doesn't do sh*t

Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: Fenix on May 04, 2009, 03:59:00 PM I had it. I thought i noticed a difference in response time, but not sure if that was imaginary. I still have the dampener, dunno what i did with the brackets. If your at all able to make your own brackets you can have the dampener for free +shipping.
If your interested, im frequently down in PA we could meet up somewhere and you could save on shipping, and i wouldnt have to go into a post office. (I hate those places) Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: pigpig000 on May 04, 2009, 07:52:51 PM Quote from: "AV6NHBP6SPD" Quote from: "pigpig000" ^trust me~~it doesn't do sh*t do you have it?

It reduces engine movement, and if it saves you one motor mount it's paid for it self.

Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: pigpig000 on May 05, 2009, 02:07:39 PM ^ do a search on google.....see what is a real damper.....
Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: ibcnunv on May 05, 2009, 02:12:57 PM A damper is a device that deadens, restrains, or depresses.
Damper may refer to: Dashpot, a type of hydraulic or mechanical damper, Shock absorber (British or technical use: damper), a mechanical device designed to dissipate kinetic energy In electronics, a kind of diode, intended to absorb energy peaks, normally generated by inductive circuitry Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: CrackerTeg on May 05, 2009, 06:52:53 PM P got you on that one bro. What is it you mean by a "real" damper pigpig?
Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: ikethegreat on May 08, 2009, 01:42:14 PM Pig I have a feeling that the reason it doesn't do shit for you is because of all the power and torque your 3.5 has. For us with mostly bolt-ons and what not, I would think it would work quite effectively.

I will agree that the ETD does not do a WHOLE LOT...but it's not non-existent...Your motor mounts will do a better job of keeping your engine in place. I'm working with Innovative to develop a mount kit for the I4 bunch.
Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: AV6NHBP6SPD on August 27, 2011, 06:55:52 PM it sure does makes engine sound louder, thats what i noticed. gona be putting it back on soon

Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: timot_one on August 28, 2011, 11:54:27 AM Mine busted. I think it was a waste of money. I wish someone made a real damper, instead of that garbage Ingalls is passing off as a damper.

I wish someone made a real damper, instead of that garbage Ingalls is passing off as a damper. They do. Sean on V6P performance was selling it. It works well and very little increase in noise. It keeps the motor from rocking too much. Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: timot_one on September 07, 2011, 02:36:24 AM Any links Ken? I don't really go on v6p at all.
Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: thisaznboi88 on September 07, 2011, 08:25:53 PM He pulled the pictures... sorry. I will try to take a pix of it on my car.

It's not a real damper. A real torque damper is like a shock found in your suspension.
Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: thisaznboi88 on September 09, 2011, 12:17:49 AM ooo i guess. but it works better then the ingall one and no stupid engine noise.
Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: accordguy04 on November 15, 2011, 02:06:54 PM Comin back to this one...
@Misha, how did it make the engine louder? Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: Mike on November 15, 2011, 02:20:05 PM It's not increased engine noise but, probably increased noise in the cabin due to vibration from the engine not moving as much.
Title: Re: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: CrackerTeg on November 15, 2011, 02:56:06 PM ^This.
Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: AV6NHBP6SPD on November 17, 2011, 06:41:19 PM imagine as if you put stiffer engine mounts. you feel engine vibrations more in cabin. so noice increases as well. its kinda annoying untill engine warms up and you out of first 2 gears.
Title: Re: Ingals engine torque damper Post by: accordguy04 on November 17, 2011, 07:56:27 PM Gotcha, thanks for the info.
