top mount or front mount
i am looking to get about 300 to 330 out of my t2 with a street port BNR stage 2 upgraded fuel mods and an ems but my questions is would it be better to go with a front mount or keep the top mount but use a water injection on it.

Yeah, I was gonna mention that earlier. He was using 30% methanol if memory serves, which is quite a lot so his results are FAR from typical. You really would be better of just getting a FMIC. You will always want more power and the top mount will just be a restriction.

Jon, you'd be fine with the power you're looking for on a TMIC with WI. If you want more power, you could always upgrade to a FMIC in the future to further cool intake temps. I believe the Greddy kit plumbs around a battery and the PS, but Greddy kits are expensive, IMO.
Our TMIC's are pretty efficient, they just become heat soaked very easily just like most TMIC's do.

Whether or not it's better, that's a different story.

I will be running the same set up shortly.
What about V-mount...? dont rule that out.
