Get some Deatschwerks injectors, no random ebay injectors

Ditch the SSQV, they're hit or miss on whether they'll work good with your setup.I run an Evo IX bov, $120, super easy to drive, and holds boost great up to around 27psi.

I'm sure JGS makes a nice WG, but you could also run a Tial for cheaper if you needed to.

DEF ditch the SAFC. Get a mail order rom tune or a local rom tune. Will make life easier, TOTALLY worth the money ($200-500) efi specialist, enthalpy, (AVOID EMANCE)

Everything else looks good

Try here for the bov, I found mine on ebay, so I got it a little cheaper.http://www.lancershop.com/customer/home.php?cat=27

The jgs mani will be flanged for a 38mm Tial or their JGS 40mm wg. A 50mm wouldn't fit.

You can buy an ecu and send it out sure, the 2 places I posted can be found through google.

Depending on mileage (80k+), a HG, oil pump, timing chain and ARP headstuds would be recommened. I replaced all of the above for my build at 160k miles, but the timing chain had already been replaced once at 100k. Getting these items replaced adds a ton of reliability. Cost is around 400-600 in parts and alot of labor.

I'm going to do a write up soon of all this, I have a ton of pictures, just need time to write it all.

Ditch the godspeed turbo. I found a garrett t3/t4 50Trim .48 A/R off ebay for cheaper then that.It's a wicked turbo, especially for your power goals.Im sure the godspeed would work fine but it's only a matter of time.but seeing as you could find a good garrett for the same price, id go that route. I recommend replacing what GTR said. If your pulling your motor, replace the bearings fo sho. peace of mind is priceless........actually, not really.
