Hey everyone I'm doing simple upgrades to my car for my first dsm build and I need help on what supporting mods i will need to run a 20g on a 7 bolt with 125k on it. No crankwalk, water pump TB and BS belts were all replaced about a month ago.(planning on going 6bolt eventually after the 7bolt take a crap) .The car will be used for street racing and drag racing. My mods are Thermal r&d cbe act 2100 street clutch, findaza 12lb flywheel, obx crank pulley, hard upper intercooler piping, ngk one step colders, ngk wires, hallman boost controller, and autometer boost guage. Please if anyone has any suggestions a reply would be very helpful
 
You would need bigger injectors, probably around 850cc.
I would get a full fmic kit.
You will need a bigger fuel pump, walboro 255 is an affordable one.
You will need something to tune with, I suggest dsm link.
And you will need a a/f wideband.

There are other things you can do to help the power along, but not needed, I listed the stuff you would NEED to add to your setup to run the turbo.

Hope this helps.
 
dsmlink
wideband
fuel pump 190 or if planning upgrading later 255 with AFPR
780cc injectors or bigger
FMIC

Sorry to hear that.... :|
 
If it's your first build, I personally would start off with a 16g or even the new fp 68hta turbo. It's the same platform as the stock 14b or t25 abd will help get your feet wet. Also, start off with what has been said already. Injectors, fuel pump, dsmlink or at the LEAST MAF-T to tune, and then a way to monitor, so a/f gauge. The later on add more goodies like a FMIC, exhaust mani,etc... Also, non of my business and it would be two faced of me to say but take it easy on the street racing. God only knows I've done my fair share back in the day.
