turbine blades are pretty tough a bit of rust wont matter at all.

If your kit has these pipes, I strongly suggest having them coated on the *inside* before installation.
Just FYI.

Cast iron rusts as well, IC pipes usually have a thin coating of oil after use.

Perhaps, but the ones I have in my hand are used, there is no thin coating of oil, and there is rust. Again, this may be fine for some, but I don't do things that way.
Furthermore, my IC pipes do not have a thin coating of oil in them, and fortunately, neither does my IC, which would begin reducing its efficiency. If you have oil in your IC pipes (?), I suggest a good cleaning followed by installation of an oil trap system for the PCV.

There are several good catch cans available. The Weapon-R unit should be noted for it's seemingly tidy placement. The others require a little more squeezing for fitment.
Unlike the IC pipes, the EM gets quickly coated with carbon from the exhaust. The O2 housing falls downstream of the turbo, so it is a non-issue.

Well, I just ordered the ATP 3071r with the .82 housing which I was told is good for about 25 more hp.
The extra lag shouldnt be a problem since Ill be installing this turbo onto a built 2.4 stroker with a stg 3 head.
And of course I have all the supporting mods, so I will let all of you know how it go's.
I am looking for 450whp on 100octane, I dont think that will be a problem....We'll see...
