Not at first. If there is a demand for it, then I will take a look into doing a straight-pipe housing.
You can always just use an adapter (no affiliation):

OK. I am interested in avoiding to downsize the cross section area from the oval side to the square/rectangular side that bolts on to the air box if that is the case. As well as to avoid disturbing the air flow when passing from the round shape to the other as my plan is to make a custom air intake system using mostly cylindrical components.

Josh, can you point me in the direction of more information about this turbo setup? Especially interested in the use of E85.

I'm trying to get an idea of what's involved in getting an NA engine running a turbo at 10psi fairly reliably like you mention on that page.
So you used a low compression Turbo head along with all stock turbo components (turbo, intercooler, engine management etc)? Internals were stock NA bits right? For E85 did you have to change any fueling components, like injectors etc?

On E85, a NA short-block would probably live for a very long time on 8-10psi, assuming a good tune.
On pump-fuel, I would limit that to 6psi, and definitely want a good tune.
The Turbo head would give the same compression, but does have the better exhaust valves and ceramic ports. Otherwise, yes, all stock turbo components, though I used a K27, not the stock K26.
E85 requires both the added fuel capacity, ~30% larger for the same airflow, and the tuning to account for it. So, on an NA at 6psi of boost w/ E85, you would want/need close to 50lb/hr injectors. The stock fuel-pump, if it is the same as the 951 pump should be ok.

I was using my M-Tune setup (951 MAF kit), with appropriately conservative mapping to account for the higher compression ratio of the NA short-block.

Ha, I know Eric... I just announced the imminent release of my DME logger:

And I'm also working on the web-page for the NA-Tune ordering now... Then I will be working on the S2 stuff.
