Installed a few other things while I was at it. An M-factory catch can and phenolic intake manifold spacer, super easy installs.
Here are some pics...
turbo installed:

intake setup (00black18t heatshield special):

tubing is a full 80mm before the MAF, fit perfectly with some machined elbows from ATP:

Very nice! I'd like to get a set up like that. Have a few questions though so I can get mine set up.
1. What MAF housing are you using?
2. I see you have plugged a spot on the TIP. Is that for anything particular you might use in the future?

If you have problems w/MAF readings, it will be because of all the bends leading in.
I had problems with a 5 cylinder with a similar (as far as bends) air intake having large bends leading into the MAF. I was told by the Germans that you need 6" of straight flow before the MAF or the air readings would be off. In the situation I had, the problems straightened out when I got the 6" straight piece in directly before MAF
I hope you dont run into a problem, but if you do, the turbulent air coming into the MAF should be investigated as it is not metering correctly. Remember that only a small area of the MAF volume is actually sampled.
