LOTL... the air filter placement, was that your only option? I was looking at the one posted on RRM's site, but it seems they had to replace the battery or something cause i don't see it in their picture.

I see the ICUP was refab. What about the Turbo inlet, was that one modified to give that 90 deg. angle? Were any other pipes fab'd? ( I need 2 know, cause my setup is coming soon)

that looks good but i got a question well its more like a correct me if im wrong. someone taught me on here that its bad to have the blow off valve after the mass air flow sensor because it is letting the air out before it gets to the tb which would cause the engine to run rich because there is less air coming in then what the MAF said there is. is this correct or total bs cuz it sounds logical

The reason he can run the BOV that way is because he is recirculating the air. He never losses the air as if he were to vent to atms. If he were to take the tube off from the BOV the car would surge and turn off. I have mine run the same way.
