Tease Update
We drove it about 10 miles on Saturday, it started raining and I had it too rich in vacuum so it fouled out the plugs. I have been a littled burned out on cars lately, so I have not messed with my map very much. I don't have an EX cluster laying around, I have a GSR cluster, but I don't think it would plug up. Oh yea, I think the main relay may be going out on the car, because it was acting up on Sunday, furthering my disdain for cars lately.
Thanks for the tips, but the nitrous is direct ported underneath the manifold. I have 4 Nos jets. The fuel will be controlled by the AEM with the nitrous fuel map. I flip the switch and it sends the signal to the aem, and runs the nitrous fuel map when activated, then the boost gets up and the pressure switch cuts the signal to the box and the aem and back to basic map. The stainless line you see tapped into the AEM is for the methanol injection from derekdevises.com. I like the dry set up because it is less likely to back fire.
Glad to see that most is done. All that hard work will payoff the day you tune it. And all my hard work will payoff at night.
I cannot wait til this thing is on the track/street. Good job, and good luck Kevin.

very nice kevin, very nice. i hope it runs as well as you hope. i was always wondering though, why didn't you run an 8 injector setup? instead of those big *** *****? oh well, i'll have to see it next time i'm up in k-town. good luck

Sorry, but that is a very WRONG statemnt. the closer the BOV is to the throttle body the better. You must remember that all the air is rejected back by the throttle body closing. If you put the BOV close to the turbo, the air basically hits the throttle body door and bounces back towards the turbo and then finally out the BOV there.

good point, but the bypass valve, or "blow-off valve" is supposed to be centered in the compression pipe, or just after the intercooler. this bleeds off pressure equally, and lets air in the IC cool more. sorry to ***** kevin, just givin a bump for others to see

Actually, He's right. I'm not saying that having the BOV at the TB will kill a turbo, but I'm simply saying in full technical terms, having a BOV right after the turbo or on the IC's end tank is the best place for it.
Think about it. The closer the BOV is to the turbo the faster it can evacuate the air coming from it. There is less pressure the compressor has to over come to push the air out the BOV, which keeps it at a higher RPM. There's a reason why Full-Race puts BOV flanges on the compressor side IC endtank.
