I use stainless 16 ga with a .009" wire. If you are worried about it breaking, you can do the same gauge in .018" wire. That stuff is actually hard to bend (its not like window screen).
Just about any industrial metal supply will have that. Or, you can try TWP online.

One more question when you install the screen do you cut it the same as the outer diameter and just place it between the two pipes or do you cut it larger and bend it over the outer diameter and use the coupler to hold it in place?
I would assume the latter because I would think it may move out of place if it's just placed in between.

Im in the process of having my kit tuned by Jeff with my COBB...It is possible, just takes time and long periods of waiting/ trial and error.
At my shop we used my AEM intake MAF tube instead of the one that came with the kit. We were able to reuse the screens as well. Just needed to buy a coupler that downsized at one end.

Hey my first post and I'm looking at this kit.
I see'd it here on there home page web sites
Oil Metering Pumping Heat shielding included to preserve OEM components located in the vicinity of turbo components. (manifold/downpipe wrap not included)
I'm going to guess that by this statement it musd mean you keep the OMP for oil metering.
Seeing how you are new like me I will recommend you search a bit more as I was able to find there manufactures home page website using www.bing.com I typed emersil turbo and return this link http://www.esmerilracing.com/RX-8_Tu...-standard.html
Sorry my english is nots so good and its because of my home scholing on the farm.

I'm still having issues with my tuning with Jeff. We found an issue with the fuel pump and I have since replaced it with a second 340lph unit.
The issue is with my maf now. I cannot rev the engine at idle or under load above 3k with the maf plugged in. With the wires disconnected it will rev freely through the rpm range but with a cel. We only did this as a test and did not drive the vehicle.
Any advice???

You shouldn't be able to rev the engine with the MAF unplugged. It should immediately go into limp mode.
Have you tried leaving the MAF connected and disconnecting the front WBO2S to see if it will rev freely when forced into open-loop?
More importantly, have you tried mentioning this to me during the tuning sessions?

it will rev fully with the MAF wiring dis-connected and it does not go into limp mode, just a CEL and it will breakup a lot at higher revs on my NA engine/tune, so I certainly wouldn't recommend doing so with a turbo setup
there just aren't enough instructions in the world for some people ....
