I used the "Prothane" mount on my 01 Z28 A4, and had a soft thin piece of rubber installed between the mount and the transmission cross member, it has kept the vibrations down quiet a bit.

I believe the Prothane mount is a better fit for our vehicles vice the Energy Suspension which is more of a generic mount with extra plates, and bumps on the poly mount itself.

My exhaust sound is a little louder in the vehicle, which I attribute to noise reverberating up through the mount. It is not unbearable though, I can have all the windows up and still drive comfortably.

Mines a automatic also. The vibration is horrible. It's really bad at part throttle. I'm changing my bad to a stock original. It lasted for 95000 Miles.
