Interesting article in Japanese Performance magazine concerning testing two top mounted and one FMC done with WRX by Scoobyclinic. In a nut shell the cheapest one (e-bay) was crap-worse than standard, and obviously the FMC was best cooling and better bhp.

An STi one from a 03+ car is considered a good upgrade, around £250 too.
