Getting an engine to shake

I work around gear heads all day, and I'd like to make myself look a bit more in the know. I have a Volvo 850 which doesn't look very fast and it isn't, but it is slightly noisy. I'd like to know if there's a way I can make the engine shake heavily when I rev it, so the guys in the shop will think I've made a sleeper. Input is appreciated.

Replace your motor mount inserts with silicone caulking.

lol, man motors dont shake. any car with a motor making any respectable numbers runs either steel mounts or poly mounts, and then engine barely moves because of that. what your after is the entire car twisting a little when you rev it. and well, with lack of torque you wont accomplish that

With all the posts this guy has made, he must be just having fun f**king with us because I find it hard to believe that some one could possibly be that dumb.
