in which I plan to up the boost as close to 20 as I feasibly can on pump gas and alky injection. But for now the few pounds I'm getting feel amazing, by the time I adjust to the power level of the car and it starts feeling slow I should have everything ready to up the boost -Sly

Will your setup pass inspection / emissions?
I was looking into the STS setup and worried about going through inspection without a muffler. I guess I could throw a small bullet on there and call it a day though.

You mentioned that you're gonna put a rear cover on to protect it from road stuff . . . I noticed the air filter right off the turbo, I was thinking of doing something similar to my Incon kit and avoid running the two long hoses from the turbo to the front filters . . . but I was worried about it picking up road ****. How do you plan on enclosing the filter yet still allow it airflow?

K&N makes a filter sock that repels water and junk, it is very efficient. Also I have a 4in 90degree bend that will place the filter up under the car a lot tighter, similar to the way STS does but not the same. Go to K&N's website and look up filter socks, I'll post a link to it later.
