Can I take the "air pipe" out completely? Since I'm taking all the air regulation and FCID out does that air pipe need to be there?
-- yes but youll have to patch 2 coolant passage that are underneat it ... i figured that one out getting mine off for cleaning/bead blast... i suggest you have some metal plate done or have it welded shut (aluminium here...)
Where does the MAF go? On the low pressure inlet before the turbo or after the turbo?
-- before the turbo inlet ...
Can I put a cone filter on the MAF and attach the maf to the turbo inlet and then have the outlet of the turbo go directly the throttle body ( by way of the IC / BOV??? )
Yes, but it is recommended that you get at least a 90deg between the turbo and the maf. And also at least a foot away from the turbo (keep the maf away from heat source!!) but it could work too...
'Discovered' that i probably need a ga16de throttle body and fuel pump relay. Might not need the relay, there are other ways to make it work...
--Use the relay from the E16, and yes , youll need the ga16de TB.
need to look at he N12 FSM and figure out what vaccum lines I need and what they hook to.
--EGR, fuel pressure regulator, fuel canister if you keep it, brake booster... hummm wath else!!...
I'll be having a nice little intercooler and blow off valve too.[/quote]
Youll be getting more HP and better 1/4 time than wath im getting right now and probably on 7-9psi ...
