Default 1 suggestion on picture 2

See where the hard pipe crosses the frame (white piece). I would cut out about 3 inches of hard pipe and put a hump or straight piece right where the frame is, it will but you a little flex at very little cost to boost performance, and if anything is too close (which you wont know until you run it thru the twisties) and could cause a rattle at about the only place it looks tight, then it will have silicone to dampen the sound.That will also make it much easier to install, take off when you need to break loose @ throttle body or IC.

I found solid from IC to TB was troublesome, just a sugg if you get vibration or hoses popping off. Also having a bead on each end of the pipes touching silicone will help keep the connections working if you run hi flow and hi boost.

Default Just means that his power band would all be

below 6k rpms pretty much like a K04 on a stock engine. This means early shifting to stay in that power band.

Hey good thing is that you can run stock valves on your car since you dont have to rev to 8500 rpms
