Ok everyone just finished installing APR's snubmount in the car.
cant say it feels any different from stock but it wasnt that bad of an install. At least with the assistance of Rich W, we got it completed in about 2.5 hrs. Gotta test it at high speed but it doesnt feel different, and I didnt need to trim the mount down as it says in the directions. =)
Less work for my lazy ***.

Wasn't the OEM part made of soft EDPM rubber and the APR of hard urethane?
Most folks I've read say if they install the sbub mount before the DTS the DTS doesn't make much difference and if the DTS first the snub mount doesn't make much difference (in driveline lash).
I am surprised you found no difference ... Especially when lifting throttle after having been in boost.
On my 99.5 it was a significant improvement over the OEM part. It reduced the 'thunk' in the driveline on lift, greatly reduced the shifter movement on on-off throttle and sharpened the gear engagement of my shifter.
