3) I like the RB dual tip, sure its a bit more restrictive but it looks and sounds bad ***..

Hmm. Bear makes a good hunting Bow, but I can't vouch for any other brand.

Define "best."

Basically, all you are asking for is opinions so I'll give you mine.

intake---the apex'i is nice, works well and reasonably priced

BOV---vent the stockers. my apex'i leaked boost on me, and I have seen two other FD's have theirs fail as well.

catback--many many choices. The GReddy Titanium is a very nice piece, weighs ~9 lbs, looks nice and sounds very very nice.

1.) Best Intake- pick your poison, each has different advangages and disadvantages
2.) Best BO'V'- stockers, vent em and put a turkey call on the end if you want a sound
3.) Best exhaust- take a folgers can and weld it on to your tailpipe

If you don't have an aftermarket AST I would start from there and boost gauge.
Don't worry about a BOV, just vent the stock one (you be happy).
Intake- save you the money and make your own. I see you in SC (where?), if you need help creating one, I can help. If not go for the M2 style from the RX7 store or Rotary Extreme depending on your plans for an intercooler.
Exhaust- I like Greddy Ti or HKS Carbon Ti. If you looking for something more civilize then get a Greddy EVO or RB dual.

Can you expand upon this? How do you know when it's failing, just not hitting target boost?
