I have the 70duro trans and side engine mount, vibrations at first were a bit worrying but they have completely gone, its just the tranny whine I get from it spinning up and I dont actually mind it..
Everything Ive read about people who have done all mounts say not to do the BSD as the vibes are shocking but I can't say as I haven't sat in a car that had it done... I think this is one of the things you should do last when trying to squeeze everything out.. Once you take it off I don't think theres any easy way to put it back on

Smoother power delivery with added cabin vibrations etc..
It is basically a counterweight to reduce vibrations in the first place...
Removing it will obviously increase vibrations (NVH) substantially I would imagine

I read on MSF somewhere that a member had there 70 duro trans mount shred itself apart within a month... So I'm hesitant to put it on mine with 300+kw atw :S

Did some more work this weekend. Shit sucked because it was outside in the freezing cold and snowing.
-Turbo is built and installed. Half of the compressor housing screw holes were stripped so we had to drill and re-tap them. Stock oil drain line didn't line up perfect so it took me about 2.5 hours to get it on. Total PITA!
-Bearing caps have been installed in the transfer case.
-Balance shaft delete is done
-PERM CC plate installed
