Description
Under hard acceleration, the pendulum mount (also known as the "dogbone" or VW's "torque arm") plays a critical role in limiting the rotational movement of the engine. While the factory bushings do an adequate job of limiting vibrations during normal driving, they tend to flex and create a vague feeling in the engine and gearbox under intense driving conditions. This can contribute to the frustrating phenomenon known as "wheel hop."
To address these issues, CTS Turbo offers their Stage 2 Torque Arm Insert, designed to fill the voids in the stock rubber bushing. By replacing the soft rubber with a high-quality (98a) durometer polyurethane insert, the torque arm behaves like a solid mount, significantly improving overall performance.
With the CTS Turbo BFI Stage 2 Torque Arm Insert installed, you'll immediately notice a more responsive throttle, delivering power with precision. Manual transmission vehicles will benefit from crisper and more defined shifts, enhancing the driving experience.
Designed in-house, these torque arm inserts are engineered to be the stiffest on the market, ensuring optimal performance and durability even in the most demanding driving conditions. Each insert undergoes pressure injection molding to guarantee consistent hardness throughout the mount, providing long-lasting reliability.
The package includes a laser-cut washer, ring washer, and replacement bolt, providing everything you need to replace the existing pendulum mount hardware. Upgrade your vehicle's performance and stability with the CTS Turbo BFI Stage 2 Torque Arm Insert, and experience the difference in control and responsiveness.
Fits all 09+ Mk5 platform vehicles including GTI/GLI, Rabbit, Jetta 2.5, Jetta TDI, Tiguan, and Passat. As well as Audi TT (mkII) and A3
