I saw that set-up on ebay awhile back. I wouldn't buy it... or maybe I would just to see how it works. My friend bought a hill country fair turbo set-up off ebay for around $800 for his Integra GSR and he ran a 14.1 which is not bad for a little 4 banger with a $800 turbo set-up, with a tune of course.

intake dont matter so much with turbo cars really... that is probly doing more worse than good i would imagine... the least amount of restriction (see: lots of unneeded pipe) on the intake and downpipe will make the most power.
And how cool the temp of the air wont matter much once it is sucked in a hot *** turbo that compresses the air and makes it even hotter. That is what a intercooler and/or meth injection is for ;]
plus having filters out the front like that is f'in ugly... which is no good because it is a 3rd gen and needed help in the looks department in the first place.
