What do these mods accomplish, exactly? Rather, why would i do them?

Mount flips are common because the stock mount the way it is aligned allows for more engine movement (so you feel less vibrations, but can lose a HP or 2 in the movement) when you flip it, you make the harder sides take the place of the softer sides so that the engine moves a little less, freeing up that HP.
TB Spacers are just a waste of money. Supposed to add more room for air, but not worth it. |
