I've got an email into CBRD and IveyTune (ETS' suggestion) to get an opinion. I'm thinking I might need a 3" inlet upgrade on the turbo and a custom 3.5" intake. ETS figured they could do one but they'd have to source a flange and it'd take a few weeks if they needed to machine one.

My build is breaking more ground than I wanted or expected. lol.
Might wanna check with Bryan@GST and see what he's using on some of his BBX or FP Red E85 cars, he must be near that threshold as well (might just be included in his posts about them). I would just have DB mod or make you a 3.5" intake and be done with it.
