Im looking for some opinions and guidance on my current budget build. Chime in with any thoughts.

My goal is 300ish wheel hp and im looking to do it on the cheap side. Its a fwd so obviously traction is an issue and I plan on doing an ACT 2100 soon and maybe a Quaife next year. Also im looking to make it a nice DD street car not a dragster or anything insane.

Parts on the car now

All maintenence has been done.

Walbro 190, not rewired. I have the kit and will be doing it soon.
Hallman Pro RX MBC
2.5" VRS Turbo back exhaust
Autometer boost guage
Punishment FMIC
2g Mas with dejon intake pipe
ported 2g manifold
evo III o2 housing
EVO 9 560 fuel injectors
Palm and MMCD logging software.
And im looking for a used small 16g and safc.

Anything else I should be looking into right now? Should I be able to get my goal out of those EVO injectors?
 
Seems like a pretty good list. But is 300hp your ultimate goal, or do you plan on making more power later on? If so why not get a walbro 255 pump and larger injectors, like 650s. They are basically the same price. Also your going to need a FPR, and why not got with a big 16g?
 
Yea 300whp will be my ultimate goal at least for now, fwd and all. I went with evo 560s just because I got them used for $100, if I was going new I would have got 660s. Thanks for the info on the AFPR, Ill have to pick one up once I do my rewire. I figured id go with a small 16g just because not many people want them and I could probly get one cheap. If I cant get a deal and go new im going to get the EVO III 16g. Im not looking to make mad power just to make it a fun toy/DD. I was going to build it up to 400-450ish hp but I found a steal on an LS1 Trans Am so when I pick that up im sure im going to start modding that too.
 
Also remember some sort of logger and a wideband o2 to make use of that safc.

I have a logger already and mmcd im just retarded and forgot to put it on the list LOL. Yea I will definetly need a wideband too thanks. I knew I was forgetting stuff.:rocks:
