    Fluidampr performance dampers are engineered for superior, long lasting crankshaft torsional vibration control.  Improve long term optimum performance and durability by upgrading the stock elastomer style crank pulley to a Fluidampr performance damper during the early stages of engine modifications.    Development testing of this Fluidampr for the Volkwagen TSI engine was done in conjunction with INA Engineering and showed a release of 5 peak horsepower over the OEM crank pulley on a stock Audi A3 Sedan.  Further testing with USP Motorsports on a Dynojet chassis dynamometer indicated 9 peak horsepower and 16 peak ft-lbs torque gains over the stock crank pulley when tested on a 2012 Jetta GLI equipped with a USP Downpipe, USP Stage 2 Intake, Spulen Throttle and Outlet Pipes, and APR Stage 2 tune on 93 octane.  The broad rpm range vibration protection and smooth power delivery a Fluidampr performance damper provides allows for future engine upgrades, including common single mass flywheel kits, without the need for a costly damper re-tune or replacement common with elastomer style harmonic dampers.

    Benefits in Volkswagen TSI Applications:

    - 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.

     

    The new Fluidampr performance damper for Volkswagen TSI applications is a direct replacement and accepts the OEM crank pulley removal tool.  A four M8x1.25 pre-drilled bolt interface also accepts accessory drives, such as a dry sump system.  Constructed from high tensile strength steel, components are precision CNC machined and high speed computer balanced during manufacturing.  Finished in a corrosion resistant black zinc chromate finish and engraved timing mark.  SFI 18.1 certified for professional motorsports.  Made in USA.
