Message	Frount mount is ideal for single turbo cars. Frount mount on our cars blocks vital airflow to the radiator, and brings hot air to the air filters. Fitment is a bitch, and more piping is required for the air to reach the intecooler. Having both turbos go into one intercooler can actually cause higher temps, and turbulence. Side mounts allow for each turbo to have their own intecooler, u keep air filters, oil cooler, and radiator happy. In turn it keeps the engine and turbos happy. This is what I believe and seems pretty logical, crucify me. #192 of all U.S. TT Zs
