Hi,
The motor mounts are new OEM type on bottom, poly up top and one of the dogbone bushings by the firewall is a solid alluminum piece I had made to stiffen up the driveline. The SQR Stge 3 has a lot of torque and this is a transversely mounted engine.
The bracket holes sheared open. The single back bunghole on the strut mounting area tore out. This mounting area is a thin plate welded to the strut tower. A weld on the thin plate also came free. Three things broke.
Car is only running ~24 PSI boost (relatively speaking for SQR).
Thanks,
Sam
