I think side mounts are probably better, but to say front mounts are a complete waste just isnt true. There is negligeable, if any, actual HP difference between having bigger side mounts and a front mount. People can talk all they want about the front mount having a little bit more presure drop etc etc but please show me this on a dyno. This "theoretical" pressure drop, measured by some such as "Unique Autosport" are similar to stock units. The difference I dont believe equates to any significant change in engine performance one way or another hence how can it be bad to have them or a waste of time. It is simply another personal choice in how you want your car to look. Plus as someone said before, the women love the front mounts :)
