Unless you are going chasing muchos power, as Chris said, stick with the STI topmount, unless someone throws you a custom one for silly money which is unlikely to happen. See howe much an STI 8 one will skin you and give yourself a figure above that you can afford, if you can get hooked up with a Hyperflow second hand which I have heard and seen good things of, (Robin H2O wire guided boredom had one) the XS one in aus looks like the early MRT ones which were copied by the chinese dudes etc etc etc.
I doubt however you will get a second hand hyperflow but you can always look.
Tacoma is in Washington state in the USA, about 30 min south of Seattle, there is a cowboy bar there called McCabes which is very coolio, on a monday night they play normal chart music.
Its the only time in my life I have seen 200 people line dance in unison to the Chemical Brothers.
