RIGHT NOW ALL I HAVE IS THE EXAHUST AND INTAKE. I KNOW IM MISSING MORE PARTS SPECIALLY FOR THE TURBO BUT IM NOT FINISHED WITH THE SETUP JUST WANT SOME FEEDBACK ON IT SO FAR. AS YOU CAN TELL THIS IS GOING TO TAKE ALOT OF TIME AND MONEY SO IT WOULD TAKE ME A WHILE LOL BUT I WANT A LIST TO KNOW EXACTLY WHAT TO GET. EXAHUST/ HEADERS /CATS:

unichip > emeange blue so take that off your list, also since your going aps tt take off the injen intake and borla headers. your jwt cams will realistically cost 2k - 2.5k w/ install. and your crankshaft is not necessary for n/a or even fi, and also a bad choice without rods & pistons. If you did the crankshaft expect around 3.5k+ installed for just a crankshaft - but why the heck would you want to get a crankshaft only?

well... as for the intake and headers i already have the intake got a good deal from a frend of mine who had it on his Z he gave it to me for 50 bux.. and im not getting the turbo for a while now so i would like to have headers to give me some power while i save up for the TT. later on ill take them off and sell them.. i know you cant have headers with the turbo. and as for the pistons and all that like i said in the writing ontop the list isnt done thats just what i have till now i know im missing things but im not done with all the research.
if you are serious and this thread is true. the header thing would be a wast of time and money, if you know you are going to go turbo dont even bother with headers, hard as hell to install and not as much power gain as you'd like. just my .02 cents.
is installation taken account in any of your math? ive done the same, listing out and what not...but being a noob, im not really sure of the costs of certain installations except from what ive read here on various threads...
...and this thread isnt so surprising as some of you are making it out to be....i mean are you saying you just purchase certain mods without actually planning ahead or anything?

My adivce would be to save as much as you can (nothing less than $20K) and then start looking for a long block setup with some nice turbo kit. And yeah don't waste your time with:
1) Borla = Why not get a 3" exhaust
2) GReddy E-Manage = I would get the UTEC or wait for somthing better
3) Cats = Who needs them any way
4) Intake manifold = I would wait and see what CJM is working on
5) Crankshaft = unless you will get the strocker kit. The stock one is good
6) Clutchmaster FX400 Stage 5 Clutch = Why not carbon clutch (i.e. Tilton, Excedy)?!!
Beside, I don't see anything for fueling??? You would need to feed that engine
Come to think of it, you would need something like $30K
