The two main contributors are the engine mounts and the front diff mounts. There are a few different choices for engine mounts providing varying degrees of stiffness. The STI mounts are reputed to live in the sweet spot.
As for the diff mounts? Ugh. I dropped the hammer on a Cusco product but still feel like I could've done just as well by making shims from an old tire.

I have all my mounts except for the rear diff mounts swapped and it makes a huge difference. Really tightens up the feel of the car.
I have a set of rear diff cradle mounts but I don't feel like pulling the rear of the car apart again this year. Might leave the stock ones and build something like this instead.
