I bought some MMIs like 2 weeks ago and haven’t put em in cuz I’m lazy as hell… Just wondering how long it took you guys to do it? Don’t wanna start doing and then realize it’s not a 2-3 hr job but a 7-8 hr job is all.

Dude, it’s like a half hour job after you’ve done it once. It’s sooooo easy.

Naw it’s cake, don’t worry about it. Do you have basic tools and a jack + stands? If so you should be good to go.
I can’t stress how easy it is. Probably one of the best mods I had done to mine.

If you are free this Wed. or Thursday, you could come over to my place and we could install 'em, I have a air gun and shit, makes life so easy to do these.

Took 15min with a lift. Should be no more then 30 min with stands.

What are MMI’s? Might be a dumb question… probably is…

Motor Mount Inserts.
Very easy and worthwhile mod on a Spec V. Get’s rip of wheelhop (depending on which ones you get) and improves shifter feel x100.

I also did this install. it took me 3 hours. I used ramps and had a jack to hold up the engine. I installed the Energy Suspension ones. The steps on the vboard are good. I had to do the additional step of disconnecting the O2 sensor plug to make more room for the wrench. I used a 3/8-rachet with an extension to reach that rear mount bolt (that’s what the thingy also used). I could not fit my torque wrench to torque them to spec. So I had to use a calibrated elbow method… :rolleyes:
I had some frustrating bits, but overall a good thing to do I believe.

:ditto: (Just using the arrow to point up) Yes the 02-06’s use ALL of the same parts, except for basically exterior mods (but that should be pretty apparent), but yeah any mods for the Spec V’s are the same
