Rear mount and even then you would probably want to swap back to stock manifolds.

Seriously, sell the long tubes for $800-900 and put that towards the kit. That pays for a big chunk of it.

Turbos act as mufflers, so no matter what the exhaust noise will change. Any turbo will make it sound different. The good thing is, turbos sound amazing and you will probably like the cool turbo noises more than the exhaust.

You can also sell your rotofab intake, RX catchcan to help fund the kit since it comes with both of those.

I saw a nice stack of TT badges that will match the factory SS badges at the shop yesterday when I went over for a drink. Nothing like have a SS TT on the back of the car. They should be included with the kit. When they say everything is included, they mean it.

You can put them where ever you want. Just a factory looking matching TT piece. TT SS,SS TT, TTSSRS, or whatever you want.

Crime2: you can check the exhaust at Matt's! It's a regular corsa and goes from the manifolds to the back.

I will have to do that. I have the LM2 and not a huge fan of it at idle.

8.87:1 static compression ratio (These were the pistons selected by the last shop, personally I'd go up some compression on these kits but this works for our goals, safely!)

17* total timing. 12.2psi upstairs (Hits 13.6psi in the peak torque).

We have 40 miles on the new motor, so the motor is still breaking in. Here is a preview of the dyno chart and a video to go along with it for now. Tomorrow we'll have the final numbers on break-in, then Matt will bring it back to us when it has about a thousand miles on it for the final dyno and any tune tweaks.
