And don't worry about the CAI thing. Its not helping or hurting. If you add the turbo, don't bother with an intercooler and piping, at 4 psi and such low power levels you don't need it. If you have access to free washer fluid, consider water/meth injection kit. Also, the poster that mentioned PCV meant to say CCV, and that tube that vents from the valve cover to the intake manifold... put a catch can in it, or at least use a bore brush for a .45 cal. Its basically the 'flame arrestor' that Mercedes used in their CCV system, catches the oil that will eventually soak your filter amd cause a runaway condition.
