So, I finally got the turbo inlet installed. I datalogged on the way to work this morning (4th gear pull from 2k rpm to redline at 5:45am this morning 
) and it feels like my spool time has increased by a couple hundred rpm. I'm going over the data now and I am going to decrease my boost target and revise my wastegate numbers. Tomorrow, I will data log again, but this time for my MAF voltage and load scaling.
On a side note, the new sound I get from the inlet makes my stock turbo sound like an aftermarket beast!!

Just my opinion but I think holding on to stock wheels is always a good idea. If the time come where you need to sell the car I have found that it is easier to sell with stockers rather than aftermarket. You also bring up a good point that the XXR's are not the strongest, this would be a big deterrent for me
Anyways, keep the stockers. They'll come in handy someday if you do get another set of rims.

I have a Perrin Inlet Hose that's sitting in my room, and i'd love to hear a before and after video and/or dyno chart if you can. Also, how long did it take you to install? Remove IC and intake manifold right? Anything I should look out for? I have a STi motor with the exception of the intake manifold....
