Yeah. Makes sense. And a retune for SC would probably categorize under heavy mod. Not just a retune. So it would be the full price as well.

So it looks like I might be turbo'd before the lonestar bash.

yeah rear mount is a cool concept but a waste if you're looking for power. you have plenty of room to fit it under the hood so why not? you can get a log manifold and ic piping for like 400 bucks and you'll spend way more than that on a rear mount. I also highly discourage the use of the stock plastic intake mani for boosting. just my 2 cents.

not at all.
you get lower temps actually, and the pipe gets filled up pretty quicky.
there isn't hardly any difference according to other members with sts.
you may spend a tiny bit getting mandrel bent piping from the back to front but nothing that a cheap ittle mexican shop can't do.
especially in the area he is, plenty of those ;)
