it turns the stock mounts into solid urethane mounts.. of course its gonna vibrate more. there's less dampening..
if you wanna be even more ghetto than inserts go buy a tube of "3M window weld" and fill in the stock mounts until theyre solid. let it dry and stick em back on the car.. viola.. solid mounts for cheap

---- that 3M window weld ----! I tried doing that and just made a mess everywhere. I got some www.jimfab.com motor mounts and installed them not too long ago. My car rattles a lot now, but my front end and motor are rock solid. I think it was $110 shipped for the bottom 3 mounts.

ye, so i stopped being a punk and finally bought the energy suspension inserts.
i only put the two lower torque mount positions in, ill do the rear tommorrow.
what a diffrence, its like day and night, the vibrations only increase a lil bit, but it'll prob be worst when i do the rear mount. i feel no wheel hop at all, it was well worth it.
