I'd only really consider upgrading the engine and gearbox mountings on cars putting out +250bhp, I'm not sure you'd see any benefit lower down the power range (unless that is the bushes are badly worn).

On a related note, I would have installed diff and gearbox braces on the RX-7 if I had decided to keep it - standing starts put a lot of pressure on both components.

Presume you are looking at a turbo then? You won't get anywhere close to that on an NA 2l V6 Mivec.
