If the top mount kit used tubular manifolds, vs the current cast manifolds ("low mount kits") it would outperform the cast manifolds all day long.
All the cast manifolds for the VQ have been a big restriction when it comes to big numbers, and no, 700whp is not big numbers. I am talking numbers north of that. Not to mention using an external wastegate, and something other than a T25 turbine housing with a tubular manifold.
You will never see a big power VQ with a cast manifold, but you will see one with a tubular, equal lenght manifold.
