engine damper or engine limiter?

I'm looking at either buying an ingalls/dme engine damper or a ZPI engine limiter... which one would you guys prefer over the other. The prices are about the same in the classifieds so price isn't a factor.

Damper. The limiter is very rigid and for daily driving you might not want that kind of stiffness.

i know its not on your list, but get motor mounts, cheaper, but harder to install and I think it works better than the add on dampeners.

actually i would do both the motor mounts and the damper... there is a difference i know this for sure. the motor mounts are easy .. not to hard actually
