I have mounted the turbo at the top for a few reasons, so that it gets constant cool air through the bonnet scoop, also so that I can make the inlet pipework as short as possible with the least amount of bends and so that I have plenty of room in the front inner arches to fit my oil cooler in one side and have the dry sump tank in the other...and finally so I can get a MAHOOSIVE front mount intercooler in there! With this set up I can get an intercooler with a bigger frontage and bigger cooling capacity than the biggest APS intercooler for the impreza.
