Powerflex - Volkswagen Up! inc. GTI (2011 on) Lower Torque Mount Large Bush Insert (Standard)

Lower Torque Mount Large Bush Insert (Standard)
Fitting this new insert reduces engine movement caused by the torque reaction of the engine during acceleration and deceleration. Gains can be seen in power transfer to the road along with less stress on the exhaust downpipe, hoses, and wiring. A small increase in NVH usually at idle should be expected when fitting an engine/transmission mount insert because you are effectively removing the original voiding and stiffening the mount between the engine/transmission and chassis. The performance benefits felt by fitting an uprated mount or insert come from blocking this voiding up, thus restricting engine movement. PFF85-1922 only fits 2015-on 1.0 MPI and 1.0 TSI and GTI models with the post-facelift mount (see below), check which mount is fitted before ordering. For a complete replacement bush use PFF85-1923.
Road Series – for Road and fast Road use.

POWERFLEX Road Series bushes improve your cars’ road holding and chassis performance by controlling the amount of unwanted flex in the suspension. This means the suspension is doing what it is supposed to. It means your tyres have greater contact with the road at all times, therefore, improving safety and performance. Correctly formulated polyurethane is as good if not better at noise, vibration and harshness suppression when compared to worn rubber. Our Road bushes offer Prolonged tyre life, Improved performance, Increase safety, and Greater cost-effectiveness.

Black Series – for Track and Motorsport use.

POWERFLEX Black Series bushes are manufactured using our Black 95 Shore A compound to provide maximum control of chassis geometry. They are designed for the Track, ready to Race and are engineered to be the best. This compound can be up to 80% more resistant to load than standard rubber and 25% stiffer than our purple performance material. If your requirements are purely for the ultimate in handling and chassis performance then Powerflex Black Series are unique, offering the most precise and accurate alignment for your chassis.

Heritage Collection – for Classic and Restoration use.

POWERFLEX Heritage Collection bushes are manufactured using modern-day materials with properties biased for the road. These dark grey coloured bushes will improve any collector’s car, whilst retaining the same standard appearance of a rubber bush. Our new range speaks to the growing demand for quality replacement parts that have an aesthetic in keeping with’ the look of the original part and restoration project as a whole whilst carrying all of the performance and longevity benefits offered by Powerflex’s unique blend of polyurethane. Going a step further than simply using the same material and durometer of hardness for all of our parts, each part location has its own shore designation to ensure improved suspension performance without discomfort or vibration, all of which ship in our new ‘Classic’ Dark Grey colour suitable for all road-based applications.
