    It deadens harmonics. I pulled one from my car a while back and put it back. With it gone, the car vibrated more. Mind you that I'm not in it for all out performance, but in it for a bit of street performance. Noises greatly bother me.

    it absorbs engine harmonics it is important. certain harmonics can get transmitted to the cross member and cause damage. any time something hits a specific resonant frequency,it will vibrate like a tuning fork. that piece cancels out that particular frequency.
