Front mount intercooler.

I agree with the FMIC along with an intake (either injen or dejon tool) but can you think of anything major that i missed.

Thanks

I would be weary of putting a 2600 in a fwd 2g. That puts a lot of stress on the crank and is not necessary. I would try and get a 2100 if possible. I agree with getting a front mount. If you want the intake pipe, get one off of ebay.

Who is doing the porting of the turbo/O2?

Most vendors do not know how to port an EVO3 for boost creep, make sure you don't pay the shop for porting for nothing. Tell the shop to follow directions here. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=186525

What do you have suspension wise??? Your FWD with your set-up is gonna be burning through some tires like nothing.... Look at coilovers, motor mounts, shocks/struts, w/e, but you need to get something to help you keep that power on the ground...

OH what was I thinking.... LSD!!!

It doean't matter how good they are, porting an EVO3 requires porting of very specific areas of the turbo, very different from porting a turbo in general which is mostly to increase flow. The only DSM vendor that I know of that does a good job in porting and EVO3 for creep is Forced Performance. Have them read the link above if they're willing.

I might go with your advice i was only going to go through Stewart Engines just because they were local i live in Cincinnati and their in Indiana (2-3hours away) i was trying to avoid shipping it off but if thats whats best i should go ahead and send it off.

At least a logger, or else how will you tune? Even if you pay for a dyno tune, you'll still need it to monitor since nothing ever stays the same.
