Probably not very much with either a 3" by 4" by 24" or 3' by 4' by 24' core. That's either realllllly small, or REALLLLLLLLLYYYYY big.

Seriously, just an FMIC isn't going to do a whole lot of impacting.

I wouldn't bother with a FMIC with the VF11, it wouldn't make enough power increase to make all of the work worthwhile...

Just do a WRX top mount and you should be set

Do it. Get it out of the way at least. I think you'd be surprised by the difference. :-)
