already got the fidanza on teh car now, and yea i've been thinking about getting the tb bored out though since the air is compressed its not gonna give as much performance as it would NA but still a cheap decent mod to do

bored tb will help with the throttle response as well as improving the ve of the engine but yea its not necessary unless you're trying to build an ultra responsive engine.

I might just get it done, like i was saying I want to go ahead and build the turbo setup to run a decent amount of boost and do it right the 1st time and later when the motor takes a crap on me or i decide to build it up i can jsut pull teh motor out and start working on it. I dont see the purpose of spending money on buying the same parts (but better) over and over again

if your gettin all that you might as well get something bigger than millenia S injectors or make sure you get the 310cc's atleast...running 10psi with the millenia injectors is commin pretty close to maxing them out unless you have water/alcohol injection or you only drive it when its really cold your goin to be detonating your engine
except if your a whiz at tuning

A couple of things not on your list to keep in mind.
If you go with the hot pipes off ebay, you will need to
modify the front to back motor mount bracket and the side
to side stabilizer, I also took the oil pan off to have a drain
tube welded on, what a pain that was.
There is going to be maybe a 6-12 little things that will require
a run to the nearest hardware store such as brass nipples,tees,nuts
and bolts that didn't come with the new stuff.
good luck
