Back to the googlemachine...
I grabbed the powerflex red street inserts for my B58 and they did increase NVH at idle slightly but not nearly as badly as the stiff seems.

Also make SURE you do not over torque the four bolts that go through the bottom of the mount. This will guarantee you get too much NVH. It is 22nm

I really wish that PowerFlex had inserts for the B46/8... seems really weird that they don't.

Looking back it doesn't seem like they did for the previous gen 3er either.
