For blind spots, anyone who has major blind spots has their side mirrors adjusted incorrectly. Your side mirror should pick up a car just as it's leaving the rear view mirror, and once it leaves the side mirror you can do a head check and see the car directly. You'll have very very minor blind spots immediately next to your rear wheels, but nothing big enough to fit a car into.

Cons:
Interior space
No long term testing on the various FI kits out there (50K+ miles)

Pros:
The most fun to drive.
Agreed. However the IAT's are hotter due to poor cooling design and less cooling track. At least on a roots style. Centrifugal is different obviously.

These con's really aren't anything I'm worried about. I'm super short (5'5") so I'll fit in this thing just fine
