couple new items added
very pleased with our new rear motor mount
keep an eye out for a new exhaust manifold configuration not offered yet, I think many will enjoy this

The Mountune RMM has a separate spacer and uses large washers. This is all one piece. You literally pop off the bracket from your OEM and install this, no small parts
I have tried most mounts myself and have been driving around on this prototype for a while now. It's stiffer than COBB and I'd say close to Mountune, maybe a pinch stiffer but it's hard to say exactly...but again close.
We have new developments with this mount though
Originally we were just going to offer the street version as seen above in red and silver anodize using the street formula bushings
We now have the same mount being produced as a race unit offered in red and silver anodize but will have Black stiff bushings for those looking for a more race oriented mount.
2 weeks or less and they'll be here

The AWR mounts are great.
The differences are steel construction (AWR) vs billet aluminum (whoosh) so there is a weight difference for one
The mount pictured is also our street mount which as described has manners similar to Mountune's mount. The AWR mounts both 70a and 88a will feel a little different or stiffer because the diameter of the rear or large end bushing is much smaller which does not absorb as much NHV as a larger bushing will
So if you'd compare our street mount to the Mountune I'd say it has billet steel inserts rather than a separate spacer (which AWR also has) and large washers to take up the space difference for fitment.
Some of these mounts have been out since 2014 when the Fiesta was released so our mounts will have the advantages or what those lack since we have used and sold so many of them
Hope that helps everyone.
I've been using the street mount for a while now. It is definitely not a stiff mount. Barely any cabin vibrations at all.
Our race version will not be as forgiving in the NVH department though, definitely more along the lines of the AWR 88a , cp-e in terms of stiffness
