From the Z1 site, but applies to all hipo mounts:
Quote:
More direct engine feel - An inherent trait of the 70A durometer Energy Suspension Bushings, the stiffer engine mount bushings provide more driver feedback and feel.
Put the power to the ground - The stiffer engine mounts help prevent engine twisting during ON/OFF throttle transitions and launches. This helps transfer more power to the ground, quicker by reducing the amount of energy lost through engine movement.
"more driver feedback and feel" = noise and vibration.
