The ATI Super Damper, meticulously designed for late-model 1.6L Mini Cooper engines, stands as the top choice and a rarity with its SFI 18.1 Certification, ensuring optimum performance for your MINI Cooper.
Upgrade your MINI Cooper with the ATI Super Damper, a top-rated and SFI 18.1 Certified replacement. Designed to fit 2001-2006 Mini Cooper and Mini Cooper S models, this damper is engineered to dampen torsional crankshaft vibrations across all RPM levels, ensuring smooth and reliable performance. It serves as a vital shield against engine harmonics and is a direct replacement for the OEM unit. The 6-rib serpentine belt drive and laser-etched timing marks offer precision and accuracy. Please note that a belt tensioner tool is necessary for removing or replacing the factory belt, and the ATI puller is not compatible with this damper.
From the factory, all BMWs utilize soft rubber or fluid-filled engine mounts. Not only are these mounts prone to degradation, they also allow ample movement of the drivetrain. This translates to looseness in your driveline, commonly associated with missed shifts and a generally isolated feeling.
To improve upon this issue, Black Forest Industries designed these upgraded mounts from the ground up. Their stage one mounts feature a proprietary 65A durometer bushing and bracket/cup design. Maximizing bushing area while minimizing vibration gives this mount the advantage of having the best ride characteristics possible from a urethane mount.
Features:
Perfect fit: Utilizing laser-scanning technology permits seamless integration with the factory engine mount arms. Quality tooling: All bosses are matched replicas with stock locations, and all tool clearances and specs are maintained. Heavy-duty construction: The use of billet aluminum instead of cast creates a mount that is dramatically stronger than its factory cast-construction counterpart. Performance design: 65A durometer bushings are geared toward the spirited driving enthusiast who wants better control over motor movement without sacrificing excessive vibrations. Choose BFI Stage 1 for a quality mount that eliminates drivetrain movement without adding excessive NVH.

To improve upon this issue, Black Forest Industries designed these upgraded mounts from the ground up. Their stage one mounts feature a proprietary 85A durometer bushing and bracket/cup design. Maximizing bushing area while minimizing vibration gives this mount the advantage of having the best ride characteristics possible from a urethane mount.

Performance design: 85A durometer bushings are geared toward the spirited driving enthusiast who doesn't mind increasing NVH. Choose BFI Stage 2 for a quality mount that eliminates drivetrain movement.
Note: Stage 2 mounts increase NVH. Therefore, these mounts are not intended to be used on daily driven vehicles.
Understanding the criticality of harmonic resonance in BMW inline-6 engines, ATI Performance Products has collaborated with VAC Motorsports to craft revolutionary dampers. Designed for BMW 2.5L, 2.8L, 3.0L, and 3.2L straight-6 engines in E36 and E46 M3, E9X, E6X, Z3s, and Z4s, these dampers tackle harmonic vibrations, unlocking heightened horsepower, torque, and longevity. Forget about broken oil pumps and timing chains!
Pairing seamlessly with VAC accessory pulleys, these 7" diameter dampers boast OEM-style timing alignment tabs, ensuring a direct fit over OEM balancers. Notably, all ATI Super Dampers exceed SFI 18.1 Safety Certification for competitive use, making them a must-have for BMW enthusiasts. Benefits extend to eliminating vibration issues with lightweight clutch and flywheel assemblies, reducing wear on bearings, engine accessories, and oil pumps, and harmonizing with underdrive pulleys.
Plus, each package includes the lightweight VAC Billet Crankshaft Pulley, proudly made in the USA for uncompromised quality assurance.
