That's what I'm curious about. The exducer is only 2.5" but I also know that if I go bigger (3" or so) that the pressure and temperature difference will lead to more boost (granted, given the boost solenoid is set to not activate the wastegate it won't be a bad thing)

Also, how can the stock bumper support be "all bent to hell??? It's reinforced fiberglass thats bolted solidly to the car!
Bumber re-inforcement (the part you're referencing) != Bumper Support bar.

Dont paint your stuff with POR 15 btw!!! There are better alternatives out there, that hold up better than this crap!

Here's a site for example, their paint is SUPERIOR to por 15:

Press the "+" on your keypad to view it larger btw, "-" to make it smaller again. (make sure num lock is on)
Also, RTEK seems like a hell of a bargain, especially to megasquirt which is really hardcore for a beginner to setup as far as I heard... (dont quote me, through, lol)

Why not just rent a car while performing major upgrades? I bet the better milage you will get with a rental car will outweigh the cost of running it in the first place!
Because I'll save more money by not driving it. The Rtek is only temporary until I am ready to step up to a full stand alone.
