Still around. Check this forum occasionally, but haven't seen any posts lately. For my latest mod I just got rid of the factory turbo up pipe with that stupid silencer that cut the air flow down from 3" to 2". Used an elbow from AT Turbo that's 2 1/2" (turbo inlet size) on one end and 3" on the other. Used a 3" (OD) pipe with a 45 degree bend and two inlets, one for the 3/8" vaccuum hose and the other for the hose coming off of the crankcase and goes to the 3" pipe. I put an inline filter in between to catch any oil that might get into the turbo. I plugged off the inlet on the airbox where the factory hose from the crankcase used to attach. From the 3" pipe to the air box I used 3" (ID) flexible hose that I special ordered from an auto parts store. The turbo up pipe works great. You can really hear the turbo whine at WOT and the turbo spools up faster. The factory air box has both silencers removed. I cut the one silencer off (the one on the side of the box) so that it is flush with the side of the box inside but on the outside it still goes over to the hole in the fenderwell. The hole in the fenderwell has a 2" flexible hose that goes down to the opening next to the driver side fog light. The 2" hose directs lots of cold air into the box. The turbo up pipe is ice cold when I'm running. Inside of the air box is a K&N drop in filter.
