Default what else is needed....

i have a complete hot and cold side turbo kit with turbo/bov/wastegate. have 317 heads/hardened pushrods/headstuds and walbro pump. also have 2 bar map sensor for sd tune. motor is going to be 90k stock shortblock.

I plan on buying ls7 lifters, ls9 head gaskets, 60 lb injectors, fuel pump hot wire, pac springs, boost and a/f gauges and lastly a pusher fan setup... i thought about oil pump and timing chain but are they a must?

any recommendations on anything else im missing? not looking for specific hp goals just want to keep up or beat my buddies h/c/i car.

Intercooler and/or water/meth injection. That would ensure you can a good amount of boost on 93 octane, and it will help keep temps down.

Even with that small turbo you should crush a H/C set-up unless its on a stroker car with aggressive gearing.
