The reviewer states these mounts felt more direct than the 335is mounts, but added no significant NVH. Apparently they are 50+ durometer vs factory 45, but factory has liquid and voids in the rubber while these are solid. 335is also has liquid and voids in the rubber, but stiffer rubber (55 durometer?)

I have the rogue transmission mounts already, and felt a bit of shifter binding on hard braking and downshift at the track. I may go for the 034 motor mounts to pair up with the rogue transmissions mounts so things match up better.
Thanks for the links. I'll be reading up on these. Will definitely be replacing motor mounts when I do turbo swap.

Anyway, bolded the part about the shifter bind. I have experienced the same with my mount setup which is original engine mounts + RE trans mounts. Far better than having the gate pulled away from you in a corner though, if you know what I mean. Symptom of having resolved 1/2 the issue.
