Updated build list...
Heres an updated list after suggestions from you guys and a little more "researching":
-Powerlab gt37r with .82 A/R exhaust
-ProEFI
-Wiseco(or CP havent decided yet) low comp pistons
-Eagle rods
-Plenum spacer
-ARP L19 headstuds
-ARP Main studs
-New stock HR headgaskets
-Cosworth engine bearings
-CJ stage2 fuel system
-Spec twin disc(always had good luck with spec in my other cars)
-Stainless clutch line
-Stock muffler/tips with 3" extended as far back as possible to a qtp 3"electric cutout
-Aquamist meth kit
-Lower thermostat
-Koyo radiator-not sure which one have to research a little more...just want something that cools a little better than the stock one
-APC racing style aluminum spoiler(for after 200mph)...jk
-assortment of defi/aem guages to keep an eye on the important sh*t.
Please add if you feel I missed something.
Again most of you know by now my goal is 600rwhp max(on this setup)while keeping the car as stock "looking" as possible. As far as the exhaust goes, im sticking with my setup,also with the HGs I know they are good for around this power and I really dont want to get a "better" gasket..this will make for a cheap little fail safe..id rather replaced a headgasket than a motor...I want the car to look 100% bone stock on the outside and im going as far as getting the intercooler coated with that thermal? I/C coating thats flat black. This list is ONLY for the engine, ill be doing suspension work at the same time but im gonna get everything ready for this part of the build.

^A parachute to slow you down.
Elaborate on that intercooler coating. I'm going with the PL kit and I'm going for the sleeper look.

Im not getting any defi/aem guages as they won't be needed..proefi is unbelieable in the amount of features it has..im surprised it can't make my car work off of an RC car remote haha. Im going to be going with the CAN guage and just running all of the proefi sensors(boost,fuel,wideband,ect) and using the CAN gauge to read them. From what Pete told me I really wont even need to monitor anything because the efi does it itself...makes things MUCH better esp while racing not having to worry about watching the road and the guages at the same time..

Yeah, thats what the CAN guage will do..it will display all of those...without the need of 50 different guages
Oh and Doug, I just caught that
I ain't scurred haha
