Upgrade your VW or Audi 2.0L TSI / TSFI EA888 engine with the Fluidampr Performance Damper (Part #551231) to achieve smoother operation, improved durability, and consistent performance. Stock dampers can degrade over time, and performance modifications often increase destructive crankshaft torsional vibrations. Installing a Fluidampr viscous damper helps minimize these vibrations, reducing wear on main bearings and timing components while improving valvetrain accuracy and protecting against crankshaft damage.
Unlike traditional rubber-based dampers, Fluidampr automatically adapts to any engine modification and self-tunes in real time throughout the entire RPM range. Each damper is precision machined, computer balanced, and maintenance-free—ensuring lasting protection and reliability without the need for tuning or rebuilding.
