I've been contemplating air/air intercooling because I want boost really badly and at this point, the price difference is attractive. I already have a CXRacing I/C pipe kit...I was looking at the piping I would need and the one kit is almost enough. I think I need just a couple more 90* and 45* couplers and maybe a 45* or 75* pipe. At this point I just really want boost. Going with air/air would chop off about $200 from my build cost. CXRacing I/C is $120. 28x8x3.5. This should fit with maybe a little cutting of the crash bar, correct? Or should I stick with 28x7x2.5?

Went with a shorter height core 'cause I don't want to cut my crash bar. I'm going for ease of install at this point.

Installing J&S and BAP today. What should I run the BAP at?

BAP installed. Car runs, so it appears that my electrical engineering degree paid off . I have it set right in the middle and didn't see any difference in how the car ran. Any suggestions where to run it?
