There might be movement under acceleration which is causing the noise.
This might be slight but enough to be heard.
Does the J's one sit like the Spoon one pictured, as you can see it does not sit straight on a CL9/K24 as they were made for a CL7/K20, which is a smaller engine in size.
the damper is not that way cause of difference in engine size. itīs cause the euro has a hydraulic steering(most that run the damper have electric so no line running there) and the line runs in way of the damper, also the abs lines are somewhat in the way also I believe. but mainly itīs cause of the powersteering line.
if there is a difference in the size of the k20 and k24 then itīs a few millimeters in block height.
I bought the Feelīs damper only to sadly find out that it doesnīt fit right hand drive cars, hugely expensive mistake now have the damper sitting here doing no good . but just ordered the Ingallīs one and canīt wait to see how it works
If you use 2 ETDs with soft rubber, it will have less vibration than 1 damper with hard poly bushings. JTso on tsx.acurazine is running 3 ETDs.
The FEELS ETD goes behind the engine. Near the middle.
JTso is not running three. he has 2. he started with what he calls v1, then upgraded that one to v2(different bracket) and is now running a second v3 that bolts underneath to a transmission bolt and to the frame under the engine, he states that that one does not have any vibrating affect cause of where it is mounted?
Id love to reduce Wheel hop but dont want to do so at the expense of increased cabin vibration, look forward to hearing some feedback on the Ingalls ETD

We have a few guys here running the Feel's in our RHD car. Why doesn't it fit yours?

Thought he was going to get the Feel's one to add to his collection.
Apparently, one of the bolts was not torqued enough and was causing the excess vibrations. It started hitting the side of the engine cover (the source of the clattering sound). There's now a dent there
On a good note, after tightening, there's about 1cm clearance from the engine cover now & much less vibration at idle.
I got the Ingalls ETD in the mail yesterday,
If anyones interested i'll post up some photos and give a short review once its installed. Should be this weekend

I'll be interested to read your review of Ingalls. I've got J's Racing installed & only a small increase in vibration is noticeable at idle. It's certainly not uncomfortable.
Before the install if you can, go for a drive & pay attention to the engine sound. Compare it with after the install. With the ETD, I noticed the engine in my car now sounds more "aggressive" on WOT.
