Rubber bushings in your mounts are probably wearing out, not so easy to spot in a glance. I would recommend getting new engine mounts over a torque damper kit though, they do the same job but better

torque damper only works if your mounts are in good condition. otherwise the torque damper will take to much stress and have been known to break.

Are you sure your mounts are fine? I doubt the damper kit will fix your problem, if anything would just be a band-aid fix.

Hasports mounts are great, good quality and do the job fine. They will however create more in cabin vibration. You do have other options apart from Hasport mounts. See thread above.

wheels hops wont stop because of your mounts. get a traction bar.

Mounts do help with hop. You can even get hop with Traction bars installed. Doesn't solve anything, it just helps to improve hop.
