The sump plate is actually part of the turbo system so that the oil drains properly. I didn't want to run one but the turbo drains better this way. I might change to a different header and pull the sump off later but for now it stays.

Yeah, I hear you about inlet temps. A friend of mine is running a pretty small intercooler and water/ethanol injection on his miata. By the time the water mix kicks in he's 3C above ambient in the logs and below ambient while in boost with the water mix going. I don't think I'll be that well off with just water/ethanol mix but it's better than nothing. I really like what you did with your intercooler and I'd like to do something like that. Got any more detailed pics of your setup anywhere?
