some people like myself really appreciate the sound of a blow off valve, it add's to the experience and brings a smile to your face when you hear that noise coming from an a-series (and they are a throw away item so cost is not a factor)
the "a bit flat" was in reference more to carby vs. EFI really, the possibilities to tune for on-boost and off-boost with EFI means you can have the best of both worlds, where the carby setups tend to be setup as a compromise or either for on-boost or off-boost. More technically put - the area under the power/torque graph is going to be much larger with EFI
inlet pipe temp is not so important (even if it is icing up) it's the post turbo/inlet to engine temp that is critical, the turbo is the heater in the system and if you can't cool that air post turbo you are going to lose out somewhat
