Message I'd take this list here, and email coz@conceptzperformance.com:

1 TIMING BELT -(Stock)
6 SPARK PLUGS (HEAT RANGE 6)
4 CAM SEAL -(Stock)
1 CRANK SEAL -(Stock)
1 THERMOSTAT -(Upgrade)
1 WATER PUMP -(Stock)
1 BELT TENSIONER -(Stock)
1 SPORT 500 TURBOS A/T
1 TURBO GASKET AND LINES -(Stock)
1 ECU UPGRADE -(Upgrade, specifiy Z model, single intake, and 555 injectors)
6 555 INJECTOR -(Upgrade)
1 INJECTOR GASKET SET -(Stock)
1 PULLEY SET (RED) - (this is purely cosmetic, the only one which does anything is the crank pulley, FYI)
1 BELT SET -(Stock, different sizes)
1 INTERCOOLERS -(I'd ask Coz about a deal on his overstocked Greddy units. Overstock = deals)
1 BLOW OFF VALVES -(HKS)
1 AUTOMATIC LINE CONTROLLER (ALC II)

Ask him what he could do for prices. Then I'd take this list...

1 RACE PIPES
1 CAT BACK EXHAUST

and simplify it by emailing or calling Greg Dupree at zwiz@socal.rr.com and asking him for his price for a FULL TURBO BACK exhaust (cat back, test pipes, down pipes). He is the man when it comes to exhaust products.

Lastly,

1 BOOST HOSES (RED)

I'd contact Z1 (info@z1motorsports.com) about the Ash Hardpipes, better looking and functioning than the silicone ones.


That way, you'll get the best parts, from knowledgeable honest and helpful people who want return business based on good referals at the best prices. I know Coz will help you out if you buy that list you got there. Greg will do the same on a full turbo back system, and Z1 is a good place too. Hell, with the money you save, you may be able to get a Koyo radiator too, or some brake upgrades, which would help you stop after you get all that go. Don't forget things like a boost controller and boost gauge too.

That's my $0.02
