Ok, so I have had them on for a couple weeks now and I'm starting to like them quite a bit. At first the car's response scared the crap outta me. I thought I missed something and immediately turned it off. I checked everything and restarted the motor. After the idle settled, it had a good vibe running through the entire body. They helped me find all the loose things on my car. My mirror nearly fell off the front glass. I think it was already loose prior to that though. Now they are settling in quite well. Now it has a bit of a race car feel (as my brother so eloquently put it). Kudos go out to those guys. The only complaint I have is that when I torqued the engine (passenger) mount down to the body, the e-blue paint cracked and flaked off, exposing the bare metal at both nuts. I torqued them by Saturn specs. Otherwise, these are a great feel. Traction is entirely different. I don't get any wheel hop. Just lights the tire up nice and smooth. No torque damper installed and no traction bars installed.

Nice. How hard of install was it? I don't do a lot of installs on my car cause I'm very lazy and not very handy.

rear transaxle mount thru-bolt (single bolt) 66 ft/lb
rear transaxle mount to subframe (3 bolts) 44 ft/lb
rear transaxle mount bracket to transaxle (3 bolts) 41 ft/lb

front transaxle mount thru-bolt 41 ft/lb
front transaxle mount to transaxle (2 bolts) 41 ft/lb

Engine mount to mid-rail (2 nuts) 74 ft/lb
Engine mount to intermediate bracket (3 bolts) 37 ft/lb
BWoody engine mount through bolt 75 ft/lb

I don't mean to steal from other sites, but it was on RLF.
