IMO, festo filters are junk, and if that uat has one of those metal filters, or any kind of filter, that's all I'd run, as the turbine itself has a 'final' filter built in and it's not difficult to change. The less fuel connections and gadgets you can have, the better - KISS.
Additionally, a 100N turbine is the bare minimum on power, lethargic, even. My friend flew one with a 100. Took it ot after the maiden and ordered a 140. I recommend the same, or at least a 120. Mine's getting a 170 - better to have the power and not need it than need it and not have it.
And those servos are pretty minimal on torque as well. I'd go 20kg minimum everywhere, preferably 23kg+.
