Default Engine Shakes Off The Line??

When i floor the car off the line the car shudders for a bit then gets going. what could the cause be for this. i thought it might have been the old air filter so i replaced it with a k&n high flow but didnt help it

If this is when you floor it, it could be a trans mount.

or engine mounts for that matter

inspect the rubbers for perishing and splits, in my subi both engine mounts are ripped apart and it shudders and clunks quite nicely when it comes on boost or i start the car, the engine lifts off the mounts under load and torques up and falls back into place when i lift off

Time to cut a hole in the bonnet and fit a shaker - at least it will work.
