Heat Management
I finished up the shielding and sleeving. I feel that it turned out pretty good. The downpipe cover took some massaging but I got it fitted. I sleeved the HPS silicone coolant line, as well as the OEM hose coming from the heater core.

One possibility for the intake pipe and filter. The Mazdaspeed hood actually gives me a little more top clearance. I have another bigger filter that I may try to fit. I also have a few different pipes, as well as a 90/22 "S" bend pipe. I will see what kind of room I have once the vmount is installed. With most larger core vmounts, there isn't a lot of room for "cold air" intake. I personally think it doesn't matters much with a turbo setup as the compressed air gets heated instantly. I'll be spraying plenty of meth in there to get things cool regardless.

And now with the nozzle mounted....
I do want to thank M-W-I Systems for sending me the nozzle mount. I saw it in their kit and contacted them. They were happy to help me out and were very generous. Thanks guys.

I plan to contact K&N on having a custom filter made. They have a black synthetic oil-free material that will match my engine bay scheme perfectly. They just don't make very many sizes. Their custom shop will be able to make the same one I have now in that material. What can I say... I like things to match.
