not sure, but it probably wouldn't hurt performance.

20 bucks and a couple hours of your life is the most you'll lose. =)

I have the ES motor mount inserts. It feels that my car can take off much faster due to the engine not 'torqueing' back. This is probably one of the BETTER mods I did to my car. I actually felt more difference than when I put my intake or cat-back. One time, I popped the hood and let my friend rev the car, the engine WILL NOT move whatsoever. I got mine at overboost.com for around 16 bucks. Can't go wrong.

i thought it did. the car easily squeals now. it is definitely a worthwhile mod. i thought about the solid motor mount but since i do not race <not yet> i thought this would be a good compromise.
