ok, 650 at the wheels is a lot, but if you focus on early spool and decent power band it's perfectly fine on the road. Try getting passenger rides with people at various levels / turbo setups to get a feel for what you want. Some people love big turbo nothing then everything delivery for instance, others hate it.

it's more about the power delivery, a spiky car is miserable to drive on the road. If you have a responsive car and broad power band, then it's fine. This also helps in terms of traction. You should get full traction in 3rd at least. 2nd gear with decent tires :) I was happy driving mine on the road, the only danger is speed limits and how slow all the other cars are going in comparison. - - - Updated - - - You need to think about what your aims are? Doing for the hell of it? Track? Drag?

pipe work question
off subject a bit, but why not get it from the original source rather than try to save what is a relatively small amount of cash? Better fitment and more importantly, support the people who develop items for the platform so they can produce other things.

-
HKS style intercooler
Define this way? It'll run fine with fmic where you're suggesting, still need a tune for max attack.

HKS style intercooler
I'm quoting a conversation I had with Greg @SZ, agreed on no 90deg bends, but piping length is similar
-
HKS style intercooler
That's the same IC I have, but the 4.5" deep one. It's the only way to do a FMIC properly, though no benefit over the ASHspec SMIC. I only switched to it so I can mount directly in front of the engine
-
HKS style intercooler
The Hks style have better tank design for less pressure drop, but don't like the extra piping length needed.
