Not to blab on and on about this latest mod, but holy crap does it improve drivability! I just got back from tooling around and am totally impressed with how much this has improved my setup. I am now confident on having this car as a daily driver, and am looking forward to cranking the boost up this week. This is a must for a turbo contique IMO, hands down!

Basically, you have mimiced the stock setup, but instead of the "before the turbo", the stock setup would be "before the throttle body" ... is this correct?

???? Nope. Air inlet is AFTER the MAF, BEFORE the TURBO. The PCV outlet hooks up as normal using a normal contour PCV valve.
For best results use a compressor bypass valve instead of a blow-off valve......... Even I couldn't bring myself to be so pedestrian as to use a bypass over a good Type RFL. The blow-off sounds so friggin cool!
I laugh now because of how many people told me not to hook the system up that way. That's okay for a Honda or something but not for the MAF system. I love Fords MAF system, it is so far superior to the speed density system!!!
