Ok ted i have alot of the stuff already and as a note im deployed to afgan at the moment so money isnt that big of an issue atm. Exhaust came with the car, gauges, boots controller, koyo rad, Tein coilovers are waiting on me to get home. Only thing's i havnt bought yet are the turbo, manifold, injectors, FMIC and ECU couldnt decide if a true stand alone was needed or just a fuel piggy back system. Yes i realize alot is just bolt on parts and as for tuning the haltec i honetly am not sure yet. I want to have it tuned at a shop first then learning the basic's of using the software and what all is required to do some tuning myself. As for modifying the downpipe it wont be an issue i have a few budies that work in the machine shop on the base (made my block off plates for me) that can help me fab whatever will be needed. What injectors do you recomend and what ecu setup would you recomend? Also the turbo is fairly expensive so im waiting on that one until i get home in Dec so i have alot of time to plan for exhaust issues and my plan was once the GT35 is in to run a true 3in exhaust 275-325 is my goal for HP now that ive been looking more at how much ill actually be driving the car
