can someone look this over please?
Ok so I've been wanting to go FI for a bit and found a good deal on something. I currently have APS exhaust, Kinetix intake manifold v4, and RT cats as far as performance is concerned. If I go the way of Vortech Supercharger are the following items ok?
1. Either RPS or JWT clutch with flywheel will work for under 400whp
2. UTEC or AAM reflash will both work (utec being better of course)
3. bov is doable on this kit correct?
4. will be getting a bigger oil pan for peace of mind
5. no boost controller needed and maybe boost, a/f (only worth doing with wideband), oil temp gauges?
If these look ok any major things I am missing would be greatly appreciated.

UTEC all the way. Reflash, IMHO, are only suitable if that specific car can be dialed on the dyno, and the ECU reflashed in real time. Mail ordered FI reflashes are hit or miss. Oil spacer is a good idea, but not required. For gauges, Innovate Wideband AF, and a boost gauge will work nicely.
Thanks a bunch Sharif, really appreicate the reply. I will go with a UTEC and JWT. Good to hear I won't really need an oil pan. I guess I can get that bit alter when I get more money.
