You will notice a LOT of lag on a stage 1, if going to a stage 2 then you want 2.5 inch piping (going bigger than a K03s then you might need 3 inch)

I wouldn't bother for stage 1 the standard side mount is more than capable

If you plan on keeping the standard SMIC, you may want to do the wheel arch liner mod to it

I was told when you map them it makes the turbo work it's tits off so having a front mount will keep it cooler but you could probably get away with standard one for stage 1.
