The ES mount is polyurethane and the stock mount is rubber. The poly mount is stiffer and so it passes more vibration through to the chassis. I'd stick with a stock mount. If you find you are breaking stock mounts then move upn to poly.
Prothane mounts are supposed to transmit less vibration than ES from what I've read here.

Talking

Well guys, I bought the part and got it installed yesterday. It tightened the car up and I can put my foot into it now . I'm not sure, but I think I could outrun my buddies L98 C4. I also replaced the thermostat, did a full fluid change, new oil and fuel filters, and gave her a bath. She cleans up nice, and I can tell that this is only the beginning of some really good times together.

Oh I've definately thought of giving it a shot of the gas. It's like a hot girl with STD's though. I know I wanna hit it, but I'm afraid of the consequences
