To answer one of the questions:
The air filter thing is called pooling. I had a 03 sunfire and the ecotec motor had the same problem. It also only happens with a wet kit. In a wet nitrous kit the no2 is mixed with the extra fuel necessary in the air intake tube (pre combustion). In a very few cases the fuel wont make it all the way into the cylinder and it will "pool" in the low spots of an intake manifold. Anyone who has ever tried to "prime" a carburator to start a car and added to much fuel or carb clean can verify that sometimes you will get a small flame from "predetonation" all of the excess fuel and n02 is combusted in the intake manifold and can cause the air filter to come out of the box (even if it is latched). Mainly only happens to vehicles that the intake manifold has spots lower than the top of the block. I dont think our motors have this problem.
my 2 cents
