One thing I also noticed is there is measurably more engine noise in the cabin after the install from 3,500rpm and above, which I actually kind of enjoy.

I took the car for a quick canyon run yesterday morning and the car feels much tighter than before, and the shifting under load is more consistent than with the worn OEM mounts. This setup is not one I would recommend for a daily, but for a weekend canyon/track car, I'm mad at myself for not doing this sooner.

Thanks to everyone who helped on this forum!
Did you go with a chassis mount shifter like CAE? If not I would recommend dropping the trans mounts back to stock. Engine mounts make a more substantial difference to drivetrain movement anyway. Trans mounts add a lot of NVH which IMO isn’t worth it unless they are necessary like with a chassis mount shifter.
