IS THE MOUNTUNE ROLL RESTRICTOR WORTH IT!
Does the latest performance mod that I have installed on my Ford Focus RS MK3, the roll restrictor aka torque mount aka rear motor mount from Mountune, shake your bones from excess vibration and does it actually make any noticeable performance gain?
This video will give you all the answers!
The Mountune roll restrictor is a direct replacement of the stock part. The stock part is ok for stock applications and when not driving hard but beyond this it could do with improvement. The stock mount/restrictor uses a relatively small rubber bushing that is quite soft so absorbs maximum vibration but this has the undesired effect of allowing a lot of movement which is bad for performance.
As torque and power are increased over standard, the Focus RS mount will struggle to absorb the forces involved, especially with aggressive driving, meaning wheel hop could be an issue - think launch control!
This part is crying out for replacement if performance is what you are after!
Engineered and manufactured from high strength aluminium with a quality and much larger polyurethane bushing from PowerFlex, the Mountune roll restrictor upgrade provides improved rigidity for less movement under load while being specifically engineered not to add too much NVH (Noise Vibration Harshness).
I first deal with the thing people complain about most with the Mountune roll restrictor (and/or other brands' equivalents) - the issue of additional vibration. I do a test to visually show it as well as describe it.
I then move on to talk about the general feel and the performance gains that I feel and do a launch control to really show just how good the Mountune roll restrictor is - shifting flat!
I think this is a great mod that is relatively inexpensive and not too hard to install so is pretty much a no brainer!
