fuel injectors, DSM 450s should work, oilfeed lines, oil return line, fuel management sytem, various fittings and bolts, vaccuum lines, colder spark plugs, and a bunch of other stuff depending on your turbo, and how much power you want to put down

what type of fuel management system. i dont know if im gonna be putting this together yet or waiting till tax time and start with a fresh motor. as far as power not looking to break records or anything just want something more to have fun with. once i get back to work and shits straight around the house then i wanna do something a lil bigger . my main goal is to make the car quick enough that ppl will quit givin me shit about how it looks. was gonna do a h22 swap but i heard they arent very streetable.

H22 swaps are very streetable, but heavy and expensive. as far as fuel managemnet, you can go with something cheap like turboedit or uberdata or go with something like hondata or an AEM ems

turbo specs?
'fast enought that people will stop giving you shit' is vague. no matter how fast it is, someone will ALWAYS give you shit. and it will always be an import, so you will always catch shit for that. who cares what they think, set your goals based on what YOU want out of the car.

well just wanting to have fun mostly but wouldnt mind being able to hang with the v8 either. its all gonna depend on my getting back to work.
my buddies favorite saying is "theres no substitute for cubic inches" so i told him bs that theres no substitue for money. lol
