(that's how my wife spells her name, too!)
The ScanTech bushing (purchased on eBay) is in the vertical mount, and at the time appeared to be made of high-quality rubber, not unlike that of Saab's oem. In fact, it even had numbers on it that matched the Saab one I removed.
The horizontal one (purchased from a site sponsor) was horrible! It smelled like burning rubber, had a greasy sheen to it, and was very mushy. I had to put cut-up heater hose into the openings to hold back the vibes I was getting when I installed it new! I've purchased other rubber bushings from this sponsor and those also were of poor quality. I hope that company has since changed its supplier of rubber parts.
I think from the extra power/torque of having a Stage 3 set-up, I should have performed the mod to the lower mounts when I installed them. I will have to check them out to see if they're okay, then tackle (yet again) the upper bushings since the vertical one is on its way out (and the mushy horizontal one should probably go, too).
Joe
