I have the revshift black 80A paired with the BW motor mounts and prefer the feedback and light vibes that I get. The drivetrain feels more connected and there's nice clunk when you first shift into gear from neutral, like the car is ready for business. I also prefer that in my cars. I have an e90 that has all stock mounts and it's very numb and I have to try to drive it fast, it's like I don't intuitively know what the engine is doing, I hate it, but I'm trying my best to keep it mild.
Also, I wouldn't say the trans mounts are fairly unstressed. I had one shear in two and the other one about 3/4 torn through. This was with maybe 50k miles on a 2010 back in 2022. I'd had the BW mounts for maybe 10k at that point. I have no idea what mileage they actually sheared at. I just happened to notice while I was under the car prior track event. I think I was going to see if I could engineer a way to use the stiffer Rouge manual trans mounts, but the cross member won't allow it. Glad I discovered it though.
