    Help !! Need power

    My car runs 15psi on a good day with adequate fuel provided by a fuel pressure regulator, i also have a spearco front mount intercooler, dual stage boost controller, 3 inch exhaust and a hks ssbov . My problem is that i am loosing power upstairs i narrowed it down to that 1) my octane is low 92 . 2)the turbos are small . 3) And my intercooler and intake piping is soft . What does anybody think the problem is and what shoul do otherwise to get more power? i a week or two time i am going to change the inter. piping to metal, put on a oil catch can to stop oil from going itno my intake and lowering my octane and build a cold air box. Does anyone have an arc intake box that they can take pics of and send me wid dimensions? Help please

    The materials and tools needed to make them are limited on my island of residence, however you can make us both a customized box and sell it if you are inclined.

    It looks like a very simple folded construction. What benefits does it have over the standard box?
