REVO MQB Engine mount kit

A little information on a vehicle that was in for various repair work. Whilst we were there the customer decided to upgrade to the REVO MQB engine mount kit. This was due to the increased power in the vehicle.

We used REVO’s MQB engine mount kit to give stability to the engine. More power results in more movement during aggressive acceleration. The stock engine mounts, designed to favour comfort over performance. Fail to manage axle hop and torque effectively, requiring you to ease off in order to gain traction. Designed to significantly reduce this engine movement. Revo engine mounts use Powerflex polyurethane bushings to minimise noise, vibration and harshness levels (NVH). Whilst drastically improving traction and acceleration.

A little snipped from REVO themselves.

”The primary design goal of the engine and transmission mounts was to provide a management system for engine movement. During vehicle operation with increased power/torque, in order to retain vehicle acceleration and tyre contact during aggressive driving. To accomplish this, the bushing design of past Revo engine mounts were retained in the MQB engine and transmission mounts, allowing Revo engineers to focus their efforts on bushing stiffness/type to accomplish the task.”

You tube clips.

Here’s a link to REVO’s youtube channel which shows you exactly how much movement the engine gives when using significant power with stock mounts compared to the upgraded REVO mounts.
