Rear Torque Mount & Oversteer...

Recently fitted a Powerflex rear torque mount - it's made a big difference with no discernable downsides (bar one possible unexpected change - mentioned below!). More positive gear change, no yo-yo effect between changes, power goes down more cleanly, all good.

However, I'm damn near certain it's reduced the cars propensity to liftoff oversteer. My best guess is because the stiffer mount has reduced the engine's forward lateral movement off throttle, thus reducing weight transfer effect.

Has anyone else experienced this? I've been playing around with tyre pressures to try and reintroduce a little of it's oversteering nature, to no avail so far.
