I am hoping to make over 400 rwhp on pump gas this coming weekend, which should help any chances of getting in a mag .

Rich, as a point of note, Modified Mag features very clean cars all of the time, you may want to give them a shot, as you'r car is as clean as they get

Yo Peter,

A: I removed my intake hard pipe kit, so the k&n filters are mounted to (a) small black 90 degree bend elbow on the front turbo and (b) the rear u-pipe that snakes up and around into the engine bay on the rear turbo. Install looks cleaner, less clutter, and I can hear my turbos spool up much more quickly. I don't buy into the 'hot air' b.s., as I believe my IC does a fine job of cooling the intake charge.

B: I will have to double check. I went through so many damn configurations before the smoke problem completely stopped, lol. Will get back to ya on this one!
