Between the both of us, I think that we can agree that going Front mount for the looks is probably 70% of the reason why most people do it to begin with. (Especially if you’re new to turbo cars/engines)

Sure, it cools the air better and has less heatsoak. Most people won’t admit it but I know it has to do with looks. That’s why you see so many stock SR’s running 7 - 10psi with front mounts and they don’t even track their cars.

Call me an idiot but i’m sure that a lot of people agree with me on this.
