WEVO Motor Mounts for Boxster and Cayman
FRONT Semi-Solid Engine
Mount - $129.95/each Requires 1
The WEVO Boxster SS Racing Engine mount is designed for competition cars and
offers maximum control of the drivetrain mass – without overt concessions to NVH
(Noise Vibration Harshness) . This competition series mount is installed within
the original Boxster (986 or 987) mount, re-using the die cast aluminum housing
and flat rubber isolator flaps that straddle the mount. Unlike Solid engine or
transmission mount systems, the Semi Solid installation provides sufficient
isolation from engine vibrations to protect your sensitive engine control
electronics and instrumentation systems.
The WEVO Boxster SS Racing Engine mount uses a 3 piece design, where a pair of
aluminum hubs are completely isolated from the alloy housing by the elastomer
pillow (orange part). This flexible interface between the two solidly mounted
brackets - engine and chassis - is the key to managing destructive vibrations
from being transferred between systems.
The Porsche O.E. Boxster mount use a combination of elastomeric and geometric
features to masterfully balance the competing challenges of drivetrain location
and NVH. The common failure mode (seen here) in the 986 series parts has been
addressed in the 987 series parts (offered here) and the O.E. 987 mount display
a more sophisticated architecture with revised geometry, plus a revision in
general design and materials.
The WEVO Boxster SS Racing Engine mount and the Porsche O.E. 987 mount share an
elastomeric isolation design principal. The highest level of drivetrain location
desirable in competition activities, is achieved by the WEVO Boxster SS Racing
Engine mount and with this comes an increase in NVH. For this reason we
recommend the 987 series parts for all street, street tuner and street driven
AutoX cars.
The WEVO SS Racing Boxster Engine Mount is suited for the following
application(s):
Model Year(s) Application Quantity Required
986,987 1997-Present Engine Mount 1
Note: A press and selection of press tools will be necessary to remove the O.E.
rubber mount prior to installation of the WEVO SS Racing Engine Mount.
Installation of the WEVO SS Racing Engine Mount requires no special tools
(OEM 986 Mount shown for
reference, not included)
REAR Semi-Solid
Engine/Transmission Mounts - $149.95/each Requires 22
Using WEVo's proven architecture in Semi Solid (SS) mounts, Wevo has developed the Boxster SS Transimission mount as a simple and easy bolt-in replacement for the hydroelastic O.E. parts, some now 12 years old! The O.E. Boxster and Cayman transmission mounts are approaching $300 as a replacement part. The WEVO SS Boxster Transmission mounts are just over half that price and reuse the existing triangular mounting cranes on the side of your transmission. The WEVO SS Racing Boxster Engine Mount is suited for the following application(s):
Technical Note: The M12 bolt through the Engine or Transmission mount should be tightened to 40 ft/lbs or 55 Nm. The M12 Schnorr (serrated) washer should be installed directly under the head of the M12 bolt. The M8 hardware should be tightened to 18 ft/lbs or 25 Nm using the original arrangement of washer and nut. |
