Well I did a new upgrade for my sho about 2 weeks ago and not sure if it was worth it. Ordered the ssm mounts with the hybrid set up that should give it no nvm. Or Atleast not much. I already noticed I had a bit from no mufflers and catless downpipes. But after installing the mounts they felt great! But realized that I had really bad vibrations. I mean I felt it in my steering wheel to there it felt like I had a back massager. It was super bad and noticeable... waited about 2 weeks to see if they needed to work in and what not but wasn’t happy. I switched out the front one with the oem one and it reduced it quite a bit but still noticeable. Anyone have any info where I can help fix this?

I put the "street" bushing SSM mount in the rear, and my 2018 doesn't have the front. Hardly any vibration, and now after a few months, it's hardly noticeable, except the throttle response is so much better than stock.

I suspect you have something else wrong if they caused that much vibration.

Unfortunately that's what happens when you replace your cushy stock mounts with a block of abs plastic. The durometer on the SSM bushings is horrible, and even when they stole my improvement idea they didn't do it correctly.

I only recommend AD Gen 2 mounts.

Well I understand many people went with others but I didn’t really read much in what happen between those 2. I also wanted to get a feel myself and hope it wasn’t that bad. Hopefully I can return them. The guy on the phone was super nice and helpful-ish. Said even tho it’s vibrating it’s still not oem but on the site the hybrid mounts said no nvh. I did unloosen the bolts a tad and seemed to help but still super bad.

Installed my ssm mounts and all I can say is WOW defiantly takes the smoothness out of the drive train..
I'm going to give them some time and see if it gets any better.. My car 60' well with the stock ones 1.70 is best
and usually mid 1.7s.. I will be going to the track in a couple weeks and see if it picks up in the 330..
