Forgot to look at the pro's of having the sc where stillen put it, such as: shortest possible route from the sc to the manifold = very responsive throttle, easy to access, no pressure drop in the intercooler, less weight in piping and gets more airflow to keep the unit cool.

Gotta look at all pro's and con's man. Just sayin'
hey every little bit counts especially when your dealing with added weight on the front end..actually the sc sits in front and is lower than the manifold keeping the heat shield intact..the oil cooler only wieghs a couple pounds at most (its small)...didn't one of the Stillen sc's actually blow a seal while on track?...i dont have anything against Stillen's product and i weighed the pros and cons for both..i just decided to go with GTM
