Default What will I noticed upgrading motor mounts?

I have an engine making 550rwhp give or take. What will i notice by going to some poly or solid motor mounts? The engine does torque like crazy and move a decent amount. I dont have trouble with anything banging. I would assume it might make the car more responsive/explosive.

It'll keep the engine in its place, its only a matter of time before the stock mounts look like bread crumbs.....you'll also "feel" your car/power if that makes any sense.

Is everyone still using the stock trans mount (like the old days of yore) when they go to the poly motor mounts to lessen the interior vibrations/harmonics??
