the side mount intercooler piping will make a difference. also, a greddy bov. i love mine! sounds awesome.

If you're upgrading the piping and leaving the SMIC, then...
What you're looking for is hard intercooler piping, upper and lower. Well, you don't have to get hard lower piping, but the upper is necessary since you need a new BOV. Get the upper flanged for the 1G since you already have one and its flange.
Make sure the ends are beaded. This will help with keeping the piping from popping off when more boost pressure is applied.

Use t bolt clamps and stay away from worm clamps too.

also i believe the piping will improve throttle responce a little, plus if your into noises then it makes your car a bit louder lol
