its all an estimation, but typically ive seen 17% drivetrain loss used for FR platforms and 15% used for FF, which in this case would be about 360 @ the crank approx. of course

With several kits on members cars already can we add a section linking threads of journals with members running the kits?

might want to add revworks to the list.

A Remote mount turbo setup.

+ Doesn't crowd engine bay.
+ A bit less heat build up in the bay.
+ Weight in the back for better balance.
+ Less passenger noise.
+ Usually quicker to install.
+ Usually cheaper w/no need to turbo specific custom exhaust.
+ Usually cools down a lot faster and may not need a turbo timer.

- Move volume equally slightly slower throttle response (& more lag.)
- Longer the pipe usually means lower boost.
- Speed bump/pothole nightmare on stock/lowered cars.
- Easily prone to theft in my area.

never owned a remote setup but a friend while I was at school had a set up on his 05 GTO.

Just my .02$ from what ive heard about these

The rear mounts dont need intercoolers, and therefor ive been told the boost and lag are very comparable to a bay mounted turbo w a fmic

You forgot another couple minuses in that you have to run oil lines all the way to the rear of the car and I am assuming it uses an inline pump in the return line to get the oil back to the pan.

I remember wanting to use this kit on my 370Z until someone posted an article explaining how this set up creates some nasty back pressure.
I can't remember the details.this kit is pretty cheap and it's like having a performance exhaust already in the set up.

if it were so good it would make you wonder why more people don't use it.

I'm new to the FR-S scene. I'm trying to figure out (based on these options) ... the prices, how long they've been out there, different stages/requirements, users experience, and the whp/wtq numbers they claim.

Is there anywhere that helps with this, or should I just get started on my days of homework on the subject?

Thanks!
