One other thing to consider is how long will it take to pressurize that amount of intake plumbing, and what effect will that extremely long intake tract have on off-boost performance (a very valid question, given that everything about the remote mount setup increases the spool time).
The short answer: Shitty low down torque numbers until the turbo starts to spool, and even then, the boost will come on slowly, as it now has a fairly huge space to pressurize; and it has to re-pressurize it every time you let off and allow the BOV to vent the pressure to the atmosphere...
Which raises another question: What kind of monster BOV would you need to vent that volume of pressure -without- allowing it to back-spin the turbine? Probably you would want one very near the turbo outlet, and another post-intercooler.
