I'd use the stock DSM intake manifold untill you upgrad turbos.. I had a magnus when i first built my black colt and it was the worst mod i did. UNTILL i put a big turbo on the car. It just made it real laggy.. I had 450s/eIII 16g/MAFT

_________________
91 colt beater..

I am expecting some lag yeah but i have plans REALLY SOON for a bigger turbo so i think i'll be able to handle it for a little bit...and Thanks

Update!

...my 3 days off working on this car were not even close to as productive as i thought they would be. However, i did manage to get a couple things done. So without further adieu here those pics are:

As i will be running the T25 with external gate i thought i would close that dang flapper door


I also thought that since i was going to put some brakes on this bad boy i would install the elantra booster, M/C, and prop valve. Here is a Before and After mock up:


Figured i would put this in next...


Little bit of brake:


Some hubs


Finished product:


And last but not least some stainless braided with black plastic encapsulation:
