New MQB specific mount kits, for the MK8, The Atlas (both 4 and 6 cylinder), the Tiguan and Arteon. Spread a little Christmas cheer and pick up a set over the holiday. We can't think of a better way to spend your holiday money than to upgrade the engine mounts for your MQB - its a gift that gives back with every drive!
'Tis the Season for new Engine Mounts
Arteon
The Arteon, never seems to get the love it deserves. So we are doing our best to ensure that it gets some love from BFI! We are happy to announce this new Arteon specific engine mount kit - a perfect fit for those looking for a bit more aggressive feel to their sports sedan.
Available in stage 1 and stage 2 (with stage 3 inserts as an add-on option), these Arteon specific mounts will change the dynamic of an otherwise great platform. Reduce lost drivetrain power and increase the sporty feel of the 2.0T engine. A must for Arteon drivers who have tuned their IS38 turbocharged power plant.
Thse mounts are specifically for the original Arteon, model years 2019-2021. For customers with a facelift Arteon (2022 and newer) with a DSG transmission, your Arteon needs mounts like the standard MQB 6 speed cars - available HERE.
Arteon specific mounts for the pre-facelift VW Arteon - 2019-2021, with the 8-speed auto (AQ450) transmission
With allocations for all factory mounting points on the Arteon, these stage 1 and stage 2 engine mounts are a perfect fit for your Arteon.
Like our other MQB fitment engine mounts, these transmission mounts for the Arteon have allocations for the battery mounting tray, but with specific mounting for the 8-speed transmission found in the original Arteon.
Tiguan
One of the most frequently requested engine mount kits is now available! These Second Generation (5NN) mounts are now available for your Tiguan. Specifically designed to mate with your 4 cylinder B-Cycle engine and 8 speed transmission, this full kit is available in stage 1 and stage 2 (with optional stage 3 inserts).
A must for modified Tiguans, these will help reduce engine movment and increase power transfer to the wheels to get every last hp out of your tuned Tiguan.
While stage 1 incurs a modest increase in cabin NVH, stage 2 is for more agressive applications where vibration and harshness are not a concern.
Made specifically for the Gen 2 tiguan (both facelift and pre-facelift) these mounts will work perfectly with your 8 speed auto transmission and 2.)T B-cycle engine.
With allocations for all factory mounting points on the Arteon, these stage 1 and stage 2 engine mounts are a perfect fit for your Tiguan.
Specific to the TIguan and the Atlas with the 8 speed transmission, this mount is a bit different than all the other MQB mounts - it doesn't require the battery tray brackets that most other MQB cars use.
MK8 GTI/ Golf R
We are proud to announce the addition of a MK8 specific engine mount kit. There are minor differences with the standard MQB mount kit, but enough to justify a specific version for the MK8 GTI and Golf R.
The mounts are dimensionally identical to the standard MQB mount kit - and the "MK7" version of these mounts fits perfectly in a MK8, but we decided to make a specific variant to allow for the easy attachment of the engine side ground strap found in MK8 vehicles. The engine mount has a slot cut to allow for ground strap mounting without modification and each mount kit comes with OEM engine side hardware with studs for the ground strap mounting.
For those looking for an OE type install and are willing to pay slightly more for the extra machining and OE hardware, this kit is a great option.
Designed to fit with all factory allocations in the Mk8 chassis, including OEM hardware.
The engine side is the biggest change for this MQB platform. While still dimensionally the same as the previous MQB engine mount, this mount slots for the factory mounted ground strap, and comes with OE replacement hardware to make for a straight forward installation, no modification necessary.
The Mk8 version of the transmission mount carries on without change from its previous iteration. Same exact fit as all other MQB cars, and comes with our standard zinc plated 10.9 hardness hardware.
Atlas
With many test miles passed on our 2018 Project Blue Ridge Atlas - we have put these mounts to the test. Available in both 4 cylinder and 3.6 VR6 applications these mounts, either stage 1 or stage 2 will enhance your driving experience with minimal change to cabin NVH (for stage 1).
The Atlas is the only current MQB platform with both 4 and 6 cylinder engine options, but regardless of you vehicle, we have you covered.
Our project Blue Ridge Atlas was the test bed for these new mounts - weve put a years worth of road trips, off-road excursions and highway miles on these mounts to test their durability in this application.
Made specifically for the 2.0T or 3.6 VR6 Atlas, these mounts have all factory allocations for mounting points as will as a 70a or 85a durometer bushings to keep your engine planted
Specific to the TIguan and the Atlas with the 8 speed transmission, this mount is a bit different than all the other MQB mounts - it doesn't require the battery tray brackets that most other MQB cars use
