Fluidampr Engine Damper For Audi/VW 1.8T/2.0T

Description

Fluidampr Engine Damper For 1.8T/2.0T

A good aftermarket damper protects your crank. Fluidampr is in a class all by itself, because it is designed to provide maximum control of all engine harmonic vibrations, regardless of the rpm at which they occur and regardless of the crankshaft’s natural frequency. This translates to maximum protection of the crank, main bearings, related engine components and more consistent power output. Also, Fluidampr is maintenance and repair free. Fluidampr is effective on both race and street applications. Other dampers on the market use rubber or elastomer as the insulator for the internal flywheel. Rubber deteriorates and wears down from repeated movements. In laymans terms, the more you work it, the weaker it will get. The inertia ring that balances an elastomeric damper becomes unstable when the o-rings start to wear. Think of it this way, what does a car wheel feel like when it looses one of its balancing weights? How would a fan missing a blade function? A damper with worn o-rings can unbalance a crankshaft and destroy it. The reason car manufactures install elastomer dampers at the factory is not for performance but for cost. The rubber dampers are cheaper and easier to make. Scroll over the picture on the right to see what makes the Fluidampr unique.

Benefits of the Fluidampr:

Decreased engine vibration. No more flywheels, crank trigger wheels, or timing gears falling off of the crankshaft. This is unavoidable when revving past 8000rpm without an engine damper.
Decreased “Clutch/Gear Box Chatter” which is caused by lightweight single mass flywheels.
Reduction in rpm drops when shifting in a competitive environment.
Gains of 3-10whp and 5-13ft/lbs. torque depending on your current setup.
An overall more efficient and reliable engine
