i didnt really think about the downpipe but i think i am gonna have to get a custom one since my turbo is gonna be mounted on top.

so its gonna be Turbo > 3" Custom Downpipe > High Flow Cat. > 3" Catback with the muffler.

Those injectors are gonna require some kind of management I think-probably a AFC at least.

To modify the timing, remove boost cut, remove rev limiter, you're gonna need an ecu upgrade (JWT $600) and not just an AFC (which you should get to fine tune). The intercooler is going to need pipes to connect it ($600) How did you find a Greddy intercooler for only $200??? Also make sure that t3 is in good condition. What are the specs on the turbo?
