It's not blown as both in my possession behave the same, it's just a useless noodle. The new mount requires me to lean in much body weight to move it a quarter of an inch!!!

I could also grab trans. tail shaft and move it with one arm while installed in the car, that's no more with the new! I had much fore/aft movement during downshifts and throttle transitions, all of which are 100% gone with the new mount. The caveat, zero additional NVH over OE!!

I previously tried a Torque Solutions mount which immediately upon startup made the entire interior including the steering wheel vibrate like a massage gun. Couldn't even focus on what was in the rearview mirror. Maybe fine for track dedicated cars but definitely not for spirited street occasional autocross types.

Thanks tons to member ZoomZ for the recommendation!!
You're welcome and glad you are happy with them. ( BTW I have no affiliation with V-T)

Hopefully I can give a positive long term review.

I know it's only been 4 months but, do you still feel confident in your assessment and recommendation of the V-T trans mounts?

I'm getting a vibration on decelleration at times. Feels like it's coming from the ENGINE mounts.

I don't feel any stick shake or rumbling near the transmission. So i'm gonna say the Transmission mount is still as assessed.

I think the engine mounts, being a "harder" rubber and a larger mass, need to break-in more. The vibrations have become less over time. I will also re-torque the bolts and see if they have come loose or just take them up a bit more.
