    yeah ur gonna have to take off the front torque mount in order to compensate for the compressor side of the turbo. I think you can custom fabricate something...i was looking on someones setup and they made one. ..i dunno how it held up but its possible...otherwise get urethane mounts up in the other 3 and call it good

                iw as running a turbo and i still had it on. I had to do some modding (to the mount not the block) but i still ran it. If you can check out accord r33's dyno vid, if you leave it off the engine is just gonna move a lot, but you can compensate this by filling the other mounts. Personally i would just try and mod it to fit in there with the turbo rather then taking it off completely.

                  I just had a torque mount break on me. My engine bounced so much that it threw off the rack and pinion alignment srewing my steering. Now my cv shaft is bad and i have to replace it. It was doing just fine before that torque mount broke. So i would mod the torque mount.

                      going on close to a year without a front torque mount and polyurethane filled mounts ( rear has an insert). And no this beast does not try to break out of its cage.

                        have you ever had it dynoed? Or anyone rev the engine with u looking at it from the outside? All the accords i have seen not running a front tq mount the engine rocks alot. To each his own i geuss tho right? I just dont really feel too comfy running 3 mounts instead of 4, but when i put my bigger turbo in this summer i may be singing a different tune...

                          Been through about 10-12 pulls on the dyno with me watching it, got it on video doing the full throttle launch stutter with me using the throttle rotor to rev it up. It doesn't move. Regardless, to each his own.
