Anyway, seems I'm the only one playing Devil's Advocate above
From what I've read, the K14 is a good compromise between boost level and driveability. Several on this board complain about lag with the larger K24. Lower EGTs and better performance are the main reasons that I am installing an intercooler. Losses in multiple bends and long runs add up, which is why I'm leaning toward a GTD-type setup.
