Driver. No, I'm not being glib nor an attempt at being funny. Dead serious. Just make sure the driver talents are up to the extra power.

But ya, more on the hardware side, I'd say two things are at top of list during any FI add: engine cooling (oil AND water) and brakes. Followed by suspension. Of course, to maximize adding a snail (or two).... fuel system upgrade (pump, injectors, return), tuning to the new parameters.

After week 1, probably just the engine unless you wrap the car around a tree 1st.
