Custom Turbo by FAT
It will run fine as you described (starting and putting around), BUT you'll have issues when you try to apply positive pressure to the system. The stock maf does not take density into account like a hot wire/film setup, etc so its going to throw your readings off wildly when you hit boost. Make sure you post back and let us know what it does, I'm really curious to see how badly it freaks out 
I'd love to be proven wrong though!

Still want to know results
. Good luck.
Looks pretty good, just needs refinement. Some heat shielding, etc. I think I'd build an airbox around the intake and stick a NACA duct in the hood for it. The MAF could be an issue... can always go standalone with speed density!
Robert will eventually build my kit, but it'll have to be to my spec... That is WAY too much piping, and reworking the routing looks like a pain!
I didn't like how the downpipe had to come all the way back. A little loss of efficiency, but hopefully you can pull some nice numbers.
Suspension wouldn't hurt, either!

My turbo enjoys hotter air to colder air for breakfast....Doesn't yours?
I agree on the UICP comment however.

You were sayin how this is going to spool like a 35r, but make 720whp right?
PLEASE make sure you post that dyno sheet.
The fab work looks quality, but, the runners are too long, and will be cooled because of incoming air, the intercooler piping is way too long, the intake is sucking in hot air, the upper intercooler piping is too close to the turbo, the radiator hose will get hot, if you can even figure out a way to run it, and you dont have a standalone ecu.
I said it in the last thread, and I'll say it again.
They look like they do good work, but this is not at all a well thought out design.
I certainly hope I'm wrong about all the problems, and it performs great. As I'm sure you spent quite a bit for this, but I'm not holding my breath..
