I bit the bullet and have just invested in some Vibra Technics engine mounts for the Xtreme. The reason was that on track days I was getting 25mm movement at the top of the engine during hard cornering causing some fouling and the top pulley hitting a water pipe. It was this or somehow put a lateral stabiliser on. I have just fitted them and am absolutely amazed at the difference; The engine is rock solid, the vibations seem better damped, but at this stage that might be just psychological, but above all absolutely no knocks and bangs from the engine bay, which even on the road I used to get as the engine is close to the body in places. The final proof of the pudding will be at Barkston heath this weekend and Curborough next.
I would love to know the engineering within the mount, but when I talked to Vibra Technics at the Autosport show in january they were qquite tight lipped, but did assure me that it would solve the problems whilst providing better damping.
