Bigger injectors would not hurt (your duty cycle at WOT with the stockers is prolly not ideal at 7 psi), and some gauges (boost, fuel press, oil press, AFR) would be nice too.

is your manifold tubular stainless steel or cast iron? if it's tubular does the manifold run and sit in front of the engine (in front of pulleys, like where the supercharger sits, or does it stay in front of the block?)


OTHER THINGS YOU NEED:
- oil filter relocation kit
- oil feed line
- oil return line
- vacuum lines
- gaskets
- tapped oil pan
- wastegate dump tube

OTHER THINGS YOU MIGHT DEFINITELY WANT TO THINK ABOUT:
- CLUTCH!!!! (stock clutch wasn't built to handle the 300 rwhp...)
- don't know if your running a stock exhaust or what, but larger piping would definitely help also.
- another thing that would HELP (not keep) your motor from blowing is a thicker headgasket to lower the compression. I heard there is a headgasket made for a new turbo setup coming out for our cars soon that lowers compression to 9:1, but that's a huge difference between the stock compression, so I don't know if thats true. Definitely a thicker head gasket though.

i have all the oil lines and vac lines and gaskets..... and planned on tapping the pan....i just bought the emange unit as well. clutch will be done over the winter cause i don't drive it any more after nov. and i only put about 300 miles every 2 months on the car anyway.

the manifold is cast iron and jet coated
