Default High hp engine mounts

I’m looking to replace the oem mounts with something stiffer but don’t want solid mounts. I’ve been looking at the vibra technics and spoon mounts so far. Anyone have personal experience with either of these on a high hp s2000. The car is mostly street driven with the occasional visit to the drag strip for now but might spend more time at the strip than the street in the future.

Why? Stiffer mounts just break more shit. They hurt more than they help on this motor.

First time I've seen these. They look pretty interesting. My guess is the metal can eliminates the side-to-side movement the stock rubber mounts can do, but still have the relatively soft rubber to isolate the vibrations. I personally have the Hasport mounts in the street 62 durometer and I love them. BUT, I raised my idle speed to 950rpms to avoid heavy vibrations at idle. Without the raised idle speed, I would not tolerate them. With that fix though, they are great. They reduce the engine movement greatly and improved the shifter feel significantly.

Vibratec here too. Seem harsh at first but once they have bedded in they’re great.

Mine are the softer of the two options available HON200M
