Wouldn't have thought it was struggling with 300hp tbh mate. I had one on my old RA which was circa 320-330hp and it was ok, but then it never had that hard a life.

Your mapper should be able to tell if it's causing too much heat....

Bugeye WRX top mounts not particularly efficient and would probably start to struggle with the airflow at 280 BHP.

The Newage STi top mount is a compeltely different kettle of fish, very efficient and capble of 350 BHP
