    818 pitch stop?

    I am curious what people's thoughts are on adding a mounting point to be able to use a pitch stop for the engine on the 818. Even with stiffer mounts it seems like putting all the load through the lower mounting points could be a bit much. Or is it not worth the effort?

    I added an additional mount/pitch stop to the front of the WRX engine and to the rear of the trans. Now there is no engine movement at all. Others have used racing motor mounts.

    I used the STI type N mounts but no pitch stop and have no issues with excess movement at all. There isn't much movement. I'm Running around 260 HP.
    I have heard that the stock WRX motor mounts do move quite a bit.
