Default Zetec turbo mtx75 mounts!?

Hi anyone that's done this conversion with quite a bit of power say 300-400bhp what have you done with mounts?
We have got the top gearbox mount on and normal engine mount and are doing the other two gearbox mounts soon. Worried that just the engine mount won't be strong enough? Has anyone strengthened it up at all or added another mount?
Cheers guys

Cheers guys but I meant the two lower mounts on gearbox. I've used the standard top mount.
It's not them I'm worried about its more the engine mount? Obv I'll add the extra lug but is it really up to the job on its own? Or has anyone added an extra mount to engine pulls side? Cheers
