Well if it gets street legal status a couple hundred miles or so range will not make the tank seem large at all. Same goes for desert running.  ;D But if you're like SOME duners and like to just run out to an area and SIT all day watching others then a pop can tank would be fine indeed.  rofl  That's not me though.  ;)

 LMAO LMAO rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl Seriously it's a real snake looking for a ride I guess,then the completed header. I'm really proud of how it turned out. I've built plenty of headers from weld up kits before but this was a first time doing one from scratch. Last 2 are of the HKs BOV. I decided to mount it directly on the intercooler for simplicity.

So the Blow off valve is on the intake side?  I always thought they had them tied into the exhaust to dump the charge feeding the turbo.  So this blow off valve will dump the pressure when you close the throttle?  What is it activated by?  I need a schematic.  ;D  Or I will just have to come see it.  ;D 

What is the ETA now?

Are you supporting the turbo end of that header more than just with the intake and exhaust connections and does the higher than usual location allow the oil to gravity back to the pan instead of having a pump?

Is that bov on the incoming or out going side of the cooler?  Outgoing/closest to throttle body is best.  Hopefully you did your homework first.  I don't know what to think about this Engineer guy though....

Read this   http://www.suzukihayabusa.org/forum/index.php?topic=136153.new;topicseen#new  I trust these guys -busa specific anyway. But to answer your question it's on the outlet side. Makes noreal difference though. Yes boost, I ALWAYS do my homework. ;) ;)

That's the wastegate.Boost pressure.I need to run fuel lines and brake lines. Tear it all apart to final weld a few things and reassemble. So it's pretty soon now.Turbo has frame members supporting it and yes the high position accomplishes  preventing any drainback,aka smoke on hills,issues and it gets a nice airflow to help with heat.This turbo is also water cooled.
