Right on Jim.

You ever think about piping a cold air off the turbos.The reason I ask is my truck has a open filter in the engine bay like the nova and I see iat's of 100-130 even if its 75.Btw my iat is still in my maf.That should allow you to run more boost without working the turbos as hard.

Nice numbers...you should swap the widebands from side to side and see if the readings are the same based on the bank or the wideband
