Just curious what you guys are doing with your air intakes? I slapped a 3" filter right on the nose of the compressor, which has been OK for the 3 months that I've had the turbo in. However I've read reports of heat + weight killing the air filter, and I'm going to be tracking the car this spring.
Lots of other setups have an inlet pipe that turns 180 degrees back towards the brake cylinders/cowl. However, the MKTurbo kit seems to be much closer to the front of the car, and the headlight motor blocks anything that would come off the compressor towards the driver's side.

I used the FM cold air box, plus a 135* & a 45* elbow coupled together. I used an air filter with an offset inlet. I had to open up the port on the FM box a little bit.
