Just bought this IC Pipe Kit & FMIC

The IC should work fine as long as you can get it to fit (I could be wrong, but I think 25" is about as long as you can squeeze in there). The piping kit should be most all you need but you may find you'll need an additional length here or there, or a slightly different bend here or there. The thing with IC pipe routing is that you really need to get the pipes in hand and start fabbing it up.

 

For boost adjustment there are a couple of easy and cheap routes you can take. The old standby is to make the length of the actuator rod adjustable. On mine I cut the actuator rod in half and then cut off about a 1/2 inch section of one of the pieces. Then I threaded each rod section and coupled them together with, wait for it.... a coupler. I don't remember the diameter of the actuator rod but I think it was about 1/4 inch, so I tapped it 1/4-20 IIRC.

 

Another boost control option is to build a check ball and spring valve, aka the "Grainger" valve. I built one and never used it because I decided to go with the adjustable rod length method above. All the parts you need for it can be found at your local Ace or Menards or whatever.

 

For your BOV mounting flange, it's easy to just get one of the generic straight ones you can find on ebay. I replied to your other post on this subject yesterday and posted a pic of mine.

 

The Bell FMU I'm sure will work fine but I don't have any experience with it.
