A big bucket of patience.
Seriously, you'll need some sort of fuel upgrade (boost-a-pump?) and since it looks like you're planning on tuning it yourself... add a wideband. What's the plan for heads/springs, etc? Comp ratio?
If this is front mount, then you'll also need to deal with the alternator and have a plan for fan relocation. Maybe AC delete.

Planning on having a rear mount turbo. Already have upgraded fuel pump. My heads are z06 heads with dual valvesprings and hardend pushrods (the works). Guages are a must, thanks so far guys.

You are going to want to change out that cam, the LSA is a little low for FI.
Are you isolating the turbo oiling system or are you pumping from the engine?

Did you read the sticky up top about "the real price of going FI?"
The braintrust of 'tech actually made this list already, with some revisions.
It is a good list. Check yours against it.
