Turbo updates: Post your thoughts please.
So, i am finishing off on all the extras and crapy small items i need, oddly enuff it seems that all the small parts in the end, end up costing just about as much as the main pices. Never the less, After looking around and taking a ruler to my turbo, I need to custom my down pip adding to the time to install, and money. Or not money. Just more time. I need to buy a V-band(tm) clamp that is 3.5 inches and 3 inch piping for the downpipe, then get 2.5 inch custom exhuast system built and installed. As all this dost seem like a bad idea i guess, but i know in the end it will be more head and back ake then i realy want to deal with. But i guess thats what i live with, by trying to go faster, and turbo a N/A car. I realy do like my new turbo, much better over the small pos i had before, so this realy should be a step up in the world. 
Here is my following wish list:
Bigger injetors ( size, unsure.)
Venom intake
I guess a 70mm t/b (if it will fit?)
40mm wastegate
new BOV ( dont know what one yet)
AEM
Greddy Head gasket
engine rebuilt (hey, atleast i know what i want for that one)
and my auto->manual swap
h: (****ing bitch shit cock sucker!)
All in all, after i finish this i meen, the turbo install and crap, i think it will be worth it, even more once i finish my wish list, and it wont take me to much more time on that one. If any one has any ideas or thoughts, please post them.

If you're doing the head gasket and engine rebuild, why not spend the extra money on some rods and pistons? Maybe even new sleeves?? That way, you KNOW if won't blow up!
