I assume this is what you are referring to?

It's mounts on the driver side at the shock tower to the engine mount iirc.
From what I've heard there not bad. It's supposed to reduce wheel hop, as well as keep your motor from shifting and vibrating around putting un needed stress on exhaust components, etc. I plan on putting one on my car this winter during my build.

Sorry, I looked for a pic with one installed but couldn't find it.

All depends on how much power you have. I don't have one in my car, and I don't have issues with wheel hop. Check my sig for details

Replacement motor mounts will give the best results, Hasport is a great option. I wouldn't waste money on those torque mounts.
