People fill in their mounts with polyurethane when the mount breaks as a cheaper alternative to buying brand new mounts, It helps a little, but generally speaking it just creates more rattles and is only a temp fix. I've heard of people using window weld as a cheaper alternative to polyurethane. On good condition mounts it is suppose to help with engine movement when launching. Energy Suspension makes motor mount inserts for most cars which do a similar job, but the problem is they only do it for certain mounts on the car.
Personally in my experience filling the mounts will snap in a week if you put down enough power.

thanks for that post thejroisgo, backyard innovation FTW! i have the same 1st to 2nd and poopoo wheel hop problem and was told that an ETD and poly mounts would help. maybe i'll save some cash and try this first.
^No prob, let me know if you really wanna do it, I've got the urethane gun and some extra tips. Just order 2 of these 3M Scotch-Weld DP601NS Urethane Adhesive
make sure you get the 50ml syringe. I'll come up and give you a hand, just buy me lunch and we'll be set.
