For max performance, aluminum subframe and either delrin or aluminum diff is probably your best bet. But for keeping NVH to a minimum while still vastly improving rear end stability, aluminum subframe and PowerFlex purple is the ticket.
I have aluminum subframe bushings and Powerflex purp diff bushings and I get a lot more whine and whir than stock. Do you have DCT or 6MT?
