What do people do with the Idle air control valve? Normally it's connected to the fiesta crossover. I suppose it could be routed to atmo via a mini filter.

block it off, if you vent it to atmos it will pull air through it when you're on boost

Hang on hang on, how can you block the ISCV off.........

You can either put a breather filter on it and leave it like that, OR run a pipe and connect it back into the intake system somewhere.
