This is the list I came up with. I'm looking for 300whp on pump. What do you think of the list? Any thing missing or something not needed? Do you think I can meet my goal?

TOP HAT stage 1 crate motor

No offense to Mike or Tophat, but you don't need that engine to get that kind of power. You can get a decent, low mileage STOCK KA to do that with. And, even if it does blow a headgasket after 30k miles, you still have over $3k that you saved in the first place.

IAP is no longer a sponsor. The KA-T sponsor is turbo240.com, who has yet to release a kit for the 240. Check out JGS. They have some nice looking kits...

Get Nismo 555c injectors or something, Deastchwerks is the entry stuff.... yea I said it!

You will also need the adapter for the Nismo FPR which I believe is like $25 bucks.

If your getting a Enthalpy ECU tune there really is no need for a SAFC-II.

Also, the list looks better, going with JGS should have save you a little money, also. The crate motor probably wont be needed.

Also honestly dont waste cash on a turbo timer. I rarely use mine due to me actually wanting to make sure the turbo timer does it job correctly. Weird huh...

Its cool thought to warm up the car, turn it on, set it for 9 minutes, take the keys, lock the doors and come back in 5 minutes or whatever. Put it the key back in ON and your off.

^^^ yea, if you daily drive it then you can really just turn you car off but if you push it a little just sit in the car for like 2-5 min and let it cool off.

Deatschwerks injectors are great for the price (Ive never used them, but I never heard anyone say something bad about them). Nismo's seem over priced in comparison.

For 300whp, I'd skip the crate motor. And I'm not sure if you need the MR downpipe. The JGS piece might run all the way to the cat.

I have DW and they are of no less quality than Nismo, in fact, do the Nismo's come balanced as a set?
