Ive just fitted my group n engine mounts, the whole car now vibrates and is very loud, sounds louder than my pugsport exhaust!
Does seem to pull a little harder tho, better throttle response & better gear changes.

The group a & group n engine mounts are all the same apart from the lower gearbox mount. I bought the group a mounts from france then bought the group n lower gearbox mount from skip browns.Worked out about £80 cheaper than buying it all from the uk!
