Some PTK questions....

I was chatting with a buddy about the PTK kit and had some questions that he brought up about the setup.

Since there isn't any support for the turbo, is there a foreseeable problem with the exhaust cracking from the heat and weight of the turbo resting on it without support?

Will the Tial 38mm wastegate be enough to control boost at lower levels? Would there be a possible problem with boost creep at higher RPM's and lower boost levels?

What turbulence problems will be seen with the wastegate dumping back into the exhaust at a 90*?

The BOV looks as if it's from a 2G DSM. Is it going to be able to flow enough to keep from surging between shifts?

What about a heat exchanger, resevoir and pump for the IC? I haven't seen anything on the website regarding this.

Any help would be appreciated. I'm also going to shoot an email over to PTK to see what they have to say about my (his) questions. I am really looking at this or the turbolocity twin kit as my winter buildup and would like to hear some more info/results from anybody.

Thanks in advance.
