Before you decide on a topmount, you should look at your other options. I had a topmount on my stock block GSR and it added a good amount of lag to my setup. Personally i would stick to something with a shorter runner design. Here's my dyno graph comparison between my topmount and SLS shorty....the setup including the turbo is the same for both dyno runs. The only change was the manifold.

The Red line is the topmount; the blue is the SLS Shorty

Damn that looks clean! Love the whole set up under the hood. The only thing I don't like is the hood, the black looks more like a gray imho doesn't match the red like that dark glossy black on the engine... But thats just my opinion, other than that lets see some numbers .

hot damn I love this car! I always enjoy reading good turbo build threads. One thing I think would make it look even cleaner is if you had some headlights that are crystal clear I think yours look a little hazed but still not bad at all. But all in looks fantastic!

I like your setup man, the black is something different, and not rice. Keep up the good work and good luck with the 25psi race tune!
