Might want to try inserts, then tend to cause less vibrations, but keeping things pretty tight.

Go ghetto. Cut pieces off a polyurethane cutting board to shove in the cracks (I got mine for &lt;$1) and then fill the rest with 3M Windo-weld (~$10). DSM guys have been doing this for years with great results

Motor mounts help eliminate wheel hop and "tighten" things up. They will make everything vibrate more so if you want it quiet use your stock motor mounts.

I just know that some cause more vibration then others. I heard that the jim fab's are the worst when it comes to vibration. I was just curious as to how much more vibration comes with the ES inserts

There's a ton more vibration than stock. I noticed a huge difference in vibration and feel when I installed them, mostly because my stock mounts were ripped, so these are just a cheap fix for that. I'm totally used to the vibration now, but everyone who isn't thinks my car is about to blow up or die. But it was awesome being able to actually feel the engine, when you push it WOT and shift hard it's MUCH more clean. Felt sooo much better. Probably one of the best mods I did for $20.
