Default Installing only one poly motor mount. which side?

I have heard that installing only one poly motor mount and leaving the opposite side the stock rubber creates an ideal balance of motor and frame vibration. Which side to replace?

yes I would say driver side. But installing both poly motor mounts on mine didn't really increase the vibration and it keeps the motor still at idle even with a very choppy idle

Well, I ran out of time while install mine, so I only have the drivers side in so far. It does help alot, but it makes want to put the passenger side in now more than ever!
