yet another how's this setup sound post

[justin_5585]

Well, providing i get my other dsm sold at the end of this month, i'll have a good chunk of change that i'll put into my gsx. So far the setup i'm looking at is as follows:

INTAKE:
AGP rs49t
Slowboy racing FMIC
GM MAF and MAF-T
Some aftermarket BOV, don't know what yet
Home made CAI in stock SMIC spot

EXHAUST:
RNR 3" turboback
Ported 2g manifold
Ported O2 housing

FUEL:
Walbro 255 rewired
Home made braided stainless fuel lines
Aeromotive AFPR
660's

ELECTRONICS / INSTRUMENTATION:
Safc-2
Chip for my Eprom ecu, unkown who's yet
Datalogger
EGT guage
Boost guage
A/F guage
Greddy Turbo timer

Let me know if this sounds like a good well rounded setup, or what i should add/remove to make it one. I'm not trying to bench race here, but would this be complete enough for mid-low 12's on california's watered down 91 octane? Thanks to anyone with good input,

In California, with an aftermarket BOV? I believe the only legal one here in Cali would be a stock BOV such as a 1g.

And just slapping parts on the car doesn't make it a 12 second car. The tuning and the driver does. I'd honestly recommend searching on each and every single one of those parts and see how everyone feels about them and reach a decision yourself.

You are probably going to want to run some bigger injectors.

I know the aftermarket bov isn't legal in california, but neither is my downpipe, and probably a bunch of other parts i have on the car that i'm unaware of. In my county we only have to smog once, not every year or two like in other parts, so unless i get sent to the referee i should be ok. Also, I'm not the best driver in the world, but i'm not the worst either, and i have a friend working at our local track, so i should be able to get a ton of free time out there this summer to practice. As for tuning, i'm hoping that with an eprom chip, the brunt of it will be taken care and i'll just have to dial it in a bit more with the safc-II. If i can find a decent shop in northern california or southern oregon, i might pay for them to dyno tune it, i beleive theres a shop in chico that does dsm work. I also forgot to put an aftermarket clutch and flywheel on my list, i'm leaning towards a fidanza slowboy 4000 combo, but if i can get a deal on a 2600 i'd go for it. I also have a mbc already. Thanks for the input, and i have read up on many of the parts, with reviews being how i chose specifics for the list. I just was wondering if anyone felt i needed something more, or if i needed to upgrade one or the other. Thanks,
