I have used 034Motorsport. and loved them... much better than crappy Vibra-Technics the car came with.

What didn't you like about the VT?

I have them but only have like 2K miles on them. I have some nasty vibration around 5K rpms on decel though, I'm thinking it's them.

Also OP - stay away from Rogue

Don't fuck with engine mounts unless your car is track only, thank me later.

elaborate?

looks like the consensus is to keep OE for street.

I had them and the car would be vibrate a lot to the point I would hear some rattles from the IP. Also, when shutting the engine it would screech a bit. I had to raise the RPM to 1k to overcome the vibration, they gave a very raw feel to the point it was unrefined in a "bad way". I went back and forth between BW and BMW Motorsport, then I learned about 034MS in a video from a fellow forum member here and chose to give it a go. They are much refined that VT, but at the same time the shift quality was not affected, and the vibrations went away. It sounds the BW, BMWM and 034MS are very similar. not sure the specs are shared.

BTW, I was able to bring back the idle speed without vibrations.

I did the 034 Motorsport ones following some research here and Youtube. Car feels a little more "buttoned-up" with no noticeable difference in NVH. So that gets my vote!

Whats wrong with RE?

We run their trans mounts almost exclusively and they do pretty well.

Whats wrong with RE?

Their quality is shit, as well as their customer service. Ben is in the business of ripping people off, there's FAR better companies to deal with.

A few of us had incidents with one of RE's exhaust in 2024, after stringing pre-orders along for 9+ months, they finally delivered a sub-par piece of shit.

I've been burned multiple times by them, so I'm anti RE now. I just figured I'd pass along the advice, like I said there's so many other manufacturers, there's no reason to take a chance on a shitty company.

What else did you have issues with besides the exhaust?

...like I said there's so many other manufacturers...

Link to other companies making a similar but superior product? We use their RSMs and Trans Mounts a lot, no issues. Always looking to see if their is something better though

RE is UUC. Some decent offerings that are simple enough (trans mounts are great), but most of it is not quality, it's chinese made parts like SGT buy adn resell. My friend found "el diablo" and the "el caliente" edition on alibaba lol. I'll give RE credit for innovation and effort with some of their new offerings, but it's not some big race team or speed shop making everything in house and tested on their race cars, it's like most retail now, buy stuff from China and pretend you made it.
