how does a front exhaust benefit over a regular rear one?

other than exhaust heat going back, less resrictided. i have true dual 3" exhaust with not afecting ground issue under the car like other true dual exhaust on a 4th gen. dont have to pull the exhaust to trans swaps. i can swap the tranny in and out in a hour. btw i think it looks cool my car is a race car. you can tell by hearing it and at a light when i use the trans brake and shot flames out 3 feet on each side. and i have barley any room under the car with 10an braided fuel lines and 3 way sub frame connectors and two a1000 fuel pumps and i can change my plugs and wires really easy i can get to all 8 under the car

At first I thought you incorrectly described your exhaust, or I misread your post. Nope, it's actually that hardcore! lol.

Sweet build, man!

Crazy exhaust man, no cops where you live or what, lat night driving only. Pretty sweet, love the sound, must be killer in person. Not wanting to pull up beside you, not that it isn't oviously a super fast car, going to 20lbs, crazy, but loving it.

hitech did the tunning at 12 psi and im tunning to 20+ psi with a hp tuner this next year at the track.

i asked evryone to tune it but hitech was the only one willing to do it with my 24x conversion and big injectors and twin turbos. i heard all the bad stuff about idle with them but mine idles fine so im guessing i lucked out.

I have heard of hitech but not anything bad before. I know Doug ripppie performance is suppose to be a nice place. I am hoping to have them tune my new project this spring.

Fender exit exhaust looks sick on any car that can back it up.

This is the same guy from youtube that was claiming a 400 shot LT1 but never sprayed it and never ran it. A few of us have been watching his bogus claims for a few years now.
