That tunnel brace will help marginally, but at high rpms the driveshaft would just rip through that.
Personally, after seeing the difference in my friend's 02 v6 M5 car going from a BMR trans mount torque arm to a UMI chassis mount (the short one that replaces the brace) torque arm, I would definitely go with that UMI piece if I ever got a 4th gen. Not that the BMR arm was bad (it's installed on my car now), but the difference that the chassis mount makes was pretty big.
