370ci, rear mount - suggestions?
Most power, ST80, GTM78, T78, TC78 and GTK would be virtually a dead heat.

I have never heard of the F1 trim before. Is that something proprietary to Turbonetics? Or am I really that much of a noob? lol

Would my FAST 78mm intake manifold be sufficient? Or step up to the 92? Since you guys recommended stepping up from the 3" outlet of the intercooler to 4" - that would definitely match a lot better. I am worried I'd reach the limitation of the 3" piping - anyone run into that?
Oh no I run 3 inch intercooler piping, the only differance is mine goes to a 4.5 inch elbow to a 90mm t body in wich im changing. You would see a pressure drop over the 78 but should make more power with less boost because of the less restriction. I think a trade off is lower intake temps and less strain on parts, Is it worth it? Its all up to the builder. Imho I would maximize flow to the motor from the turbo and exhaust.

There is some really good questions and info in this thread. I check the FI section often as to learn as much as I can about turbos and rear mount set ups. Keep at it so I can learn more. Thanks 
I am going to probably grab a Tubular K Member as well from BMR.. Think it will give me better clearance to run a bigger charge pipe to the front of the car (STS stock piping I believe is 2.5" and I think I'll do 3"). The way the piping is going to go to the front I will probably need a driver side SFC now too lol.
