I might sound like hard *** and a douche bag but that's my take on it.

You can call it constructive criticism. Bashing it would be deploring it without anything to back it all up. It's still better than no boost at all and it works okay now as far as we know.

I agree...it was constructive criticism and not bashing. I take constructive criticism kindly because I'm here to learn just like everyone else. I like to learn from people and hopefully people can learn from my build as well. I'm by no means an expert.

have you seen a subaru motor? Same concept with 2 less cylinders.

MAF placement is so easy to get around.

Running the MAF's before the turbo is more ideal.

Either way cylinders have nothing to do with running a single turbo.

But that is a flat 4 cylinder with 1 intake inlet. If the car has 2 cylinder banks, 2 intake inlets and 2 MAFs it would be better off with 2 turbos.

Symmetry in my point of view equals reliability and I like the way symmetry looks too. But if it works now it's all that matters.
