Alright, after doing some shopping and checking a bunch of different stuff, this is the setup that I am planning on putting together...just wanna know what everyone else thinks of it...

*This isnt everything yet, just mainly the turbo setup

Garret GT28r Turbo w/ internal wastegateMegan Racing Exhaust manifoldKoyo Racing Aluminum RadiatorCrower stage 2 cams (264/264 duration)HKS Turbo TimerEagle RodsCP Piston Set (9:1 compression)Walbro Fuel pump

Thats what I have so far in my quest...i know i still need bigger injectors, boost controller, ect....and anyone know where i can get a decent intercooler kit from? Thanks.

I say skip the cams and get a GOOD manifold. It will save you time and money in the long run.

For a FMIC, I just bought an SR fmic kit from a friend. I've been told that most of the piping will work for the DE but i'll fab up a hotpipe.

Don't forget a BOV, Clutch, gauges ect....

Sounds like a good start for a good, reliable engine. Get new head and main studs. Or just get ARP's. And a Cometic head gasket, or something along those lines. The only thing gonna hold you back is the T2 flange. Granted I have a Disco Potato on my car, I still would rather go T3 for the sake of expandability.And definitely skip the cams. You wont need them till later. And the V2's pretty much just bolt in without too much trouble. shims, adjustment, etc..I would check out AMSperformance for rebuild parts. That's who I bought my stuff from. Granted you can get parts for cheaper if you shop around, but you can't beat the experience and knowledge they have if you run into any problems.

And that my friend, is all the information I have at this time. My daughter is whirling around a pissy diaper at the moment and I have to go bust some ***...
