These are great front mounts, I paid £340 for mine and am more than happy with it. Get some lurvely noises and I too have not noticed any extra lag.
Mine however does hang below the bottom of the bumper but my STi splitter hides it.

lol I didn't get what this mean till I saw the thread about the Autobahn 88 intercoolers. 
Just to clarify: these are not cheap Ebay rubbish; their effectiveness has been objectively measured by a respected supplier here with a charge temp guage, where, if memory served, it comfortably outperformed other uprated top mounts, the Sti 8 inctercooler (with the larger bonnet scoop and other gubbins fitted) etc... If you get one of these the car will run safer (with an appropriate remap) as heatsoak is no longer a concern and you don't have to worry about charge temps during sustained hard throttle applications or at high speeds and your mapper will be able to tune the car for a bit more power
Lots of people on here have the hybrid and are very happy with it.
A very good investment at this money.

Up again 
Come on people this is a great deal on a quality piece of kit!
You really don't need to spend a fortune on a FMIC to get a good un, but there are lots of cheap bad ones out there!

I think i'll pass on this, the core shape doesn't seem very good for a newage. The bumper opening is longer and thinner on a newage compared to a classic (even more so on my hawkeye), so a big percentage is hidden behind plastic. Not good 
.
BTT tho for more classic owners to take advantage of a great price
