Default EK H22 Swap Mount Debate...Need Help plz

For all those who have owned an EK with a H22..My question is this..Im new to the H series game..I've been reading on all the popular Honda Forums but heres the issue..Between the three popular brands(Hasport, Innovative, Avid) Im reading problems with all three of them..I know they all position the motor in different places so I know that makes a difference..but everytime I somewhat get sold on one, I find threads about it giving problems..So to anyone who has an ek w/ a H, If I could get some facts more than opinions on which one is the best to use, It'd be greatly appreciated

Hasports hands down, I've never ever had one issue with a hasport mount. We've down countless number of h setups using hasport mounts and never one had an issue. The oil pans do sit low but thats with any mount company, its a trade off of having an h22 in there.

Never had a problem with Hasport.

I have a set of steel innovatives I am looking to sell. I upgraded to Hasports with Hasport axles. I was running the innovative with the Integra axles and accord half shaft with no problems.

i'm using Avid racing mounts and was running some kind of axle set-up with no binding issues until i snapped one at the track. went with hasport axles, and had to raise the car up about 2 inches because of the driver side axle binding. Passenger side freely moved to the outside of the hub, drivers side had close to 3/8 to 1/2 inch out of the hub. Talked to Chris at hasport and he told me its because Avid sits the engine closer to the driver side strut tower thus reducing the amount of axle travel and causing it to bind. So to fix that and drop the car back down to where i had it to begin with i just ordered the NEW EkH3 kit from hasport. A little pricey but you gotta pay to play.

i just got a ek hatch with a h22 and i was gonna up grade the mounts anyway. i was reading on the innovatie site that the use of their conversion front mount is reccomended because it "Adds strength and rigidity to the chasis so as not to tear the frame. " would this be a wise part to buy inconjunction with the innovative or hasport mounts or is it not really necessary?
