ARP Con rod studs
ARP Head studs
RC 550 fuel injectors
Turbonetics / Garret .48/.60 hybrid turbo
Custom exhaust manifold

Megasquirt
Intercooler
block machineing
head work
charge piping
headgasket

some other stuff that im too tired to remember.
Now that, thats all listed if anyone has any ideas on anything listed please feel free to leave me some feedback. If anyone has used megasquirt, I would love to know how its working out for you. If anyones has an intercooler you need to unload im looking for one.

wait wait wait. i think you should have some people help you with your list.. not to sound like an ass or anything but..
how are you going to get the kspec 1.8L 7.7:1 rod/piston combo AND the weisco 8.8:1 compression pistons?
before you just make a list like that i would do some extensive research on turbo tibs, cuz you may be spending money in places you don't need, and not getting enough where its needed.
for example, theres no reason to get the ARP head studs, and ARP rod bolts, if your only going with 550cc injectors. with 550cc injectors you will be at around 350bhp, which is ~300whp. with those numbers, those injectors would be hitting their peak efficiency and you would be in NO need for the ARP stuff.
what type of machining do you plan for the block? you don't really need to machine anything but honing your cylinders.
are you getting turbonetics or garrett?
i wouldn't get the kspec rod/piston combo, unless you plan for really high horsepower. with that low of compression you are going to have to push alot more boost to get any good power out of it.
