Default broken motor mounts in an EK...Should i weld it solid? lol

I have an EK hatch with a boosted single cam, and for some reason it keeps breaking the drivers side motor mount. I was wondering what you guys suggest I should do. I think i'm just going to end up welding it solid, but I thought i would get everyone's opinion first. I know its going to vibrate like a ************, and I may eventually break the welds...but I just need a short term fix to get the car back on the road.

Hasport mounts. I broke my friends mount with a simple stock ITR swap, popped the top right off and hit the hood and all, it was pretty crazy to see. But also we werent running the bottom torque mounts. He since switched to hasport and that **** never moves.

do they make mounts for d series though? the only problem is that I'm swapping the car as soon as I get my motor done, so i really don't want to spend a whole lot on the current setup.
