Looks like you got all the right parts so far.
3" exhaust is somthing to look into! Staying with the stock stall?

Good to see your not going with a malpassi reg aswell! I made 221rwkw with a 2.5" exhaust but that was with a 3" dump pipe,Im sure it had abit more in it befor i went to 3" all the way aswell.

I bought mine turbo but came across a few problems once i bougth it.
My malpassi fuel reg stuffed up so i just went back a stock one,My return line from the turbo melted and the clutch didnt last very long. With a good tune the car should last a while,Plus it seems you have all the right stuff

The only thing I'm worried about is the head blowing. I havnt decided yet whether I'm going to change the head gasket now , or take a chance and see if it blows lol . But if I change it I'll get a ticky head .

I havnt had any drama with my head gasket and im making 240rwkw hopefuly 270rwkw in a few weeks.
But im also using a AU motor and as sexyr6 there gaskets are better. Personally i wouldnt bother changing it,Theres plenty on people making nice power on a stock gasket,But im a lazy C*** so its up to you lol

yeh i probably wont change it as i cant have my car off the road too much cause its my daily. i know it'll have to be off the road when i turbo it but im hoping to get all the pieces then put it all together one weekend or something,

my highest dyno figure of with a 2.5 inch exhaust was 243rwkw , but it struggles with anything over 7psi.
so if your only after low 200's stay with the 2.5 cheers and good luck
