Does your brother have forged internals or is he waiting for the day he grenades his motor to rebuild?

best bang for the buck is a $5 tube of polyurethane to fill in the gaps. Will make a huge difference... and can't beat the price.

full poly mounts will make your interior shake like a dump truck... something to keep in mind.

u clearly have never had fully poly mounts before its more noise then shaking, and its a 2.2 no way it will ever shake like a dump truck unless the motor is about to **** out

Don't fill the stock mounts with poly. It is a big waste of your time, it will come apart and hop will come back in a few days.

If hop is a problem or **** feels like its banging around I suggest TTR poly trans and the TTR upper mount. It will help a lot! Vibes are minimal(noticeable, but not bad in anyway) even with poly in this car...This is a smooth engine.

Powell mounts are another option. They work great too and vibes are close to stock, almost unnoticeable, but price is a bit higher.
