keep in mine price is not an factor!

in a dilema here. i love topmounts but im not sure if it will be overkill. i plan to run around 500whp on 25psi. Or will a ramhorn be more my path?

 

from what ive read topmounts take a little more time to spool but yield higher top end numbers. If building for track purpose i'd go with a topmount. plus allows for easier turbo access.

 

top mounts look sick but it all depends what you want is it a track car or a weekend/daily warrior...i would go with a top mount with your power range being it might take longer to spool your turbo it will hold power up top very well

 

topmounts were soo 2007 the new 2008 hotness is sidemounts

 

its going to be a weekend warrior but mainly drag strip car. so the lag is not drastic with the topmount? thats honestly all i was worried about

what a great way to provide the same info posted right above you but in different txt

I have no experience with neither manifold. I've got a ramhorn sitting in my room but currently running a spoolin quick 4. Maybe somebody with actual experience will chime in and give you the info your looking for.

well he did say that price wasnt a issue

 

The turbo doesn't care if its mounted on the bottom or top. I suggest ram.

 

preformance wise? which has quicker spool? power?

I'd say a ram horn. You will make just as much power on a ram then you will with a top mount. Top mount makes it easier though to change out turbos. I'll give the topmount that.

 

ok so what are the pros and cons of each? price is not an option

Searching is also an option.
