Help me finish my SC setup. So here's a list of what I've purchased so far for my relatively stock 02 SS A4. I'm planning on installing everything myself. Let me know what little parts, big parts, etc, i need to complete my setup. I want to make sure I have all gaskets, bolts, etc needed and any other major items.
Purchased and need to install:
Powerdyne Ls1 kit (missing belt)
42# injectors
Walbro 255 fuel pump in sending unit
SLP 160 thermostat
TCI 3500 stall 2.5 str torque converter
Pacesetter coated LT's w/02 extensions
3.73 gears (need install kit)
Parts i think I still need to buy:
TSP catted Y pipe for pacesetters (I'm in CA)
Sub-Frame connectors (diamond type preferred)
Intake lid???
Transmission cooler???
Port my throttle body???
Help me out as I want to get everything purchased and do the install all at once. Let me know what you think I need or where I can get it, prices, whatever help you can give.

how bout gears? Turns out I haven't got the gears yet and wanted to know what I should get and how much they'd cost? I thought 3.73's with this setup would be good. Where should I get them? Should I stay away from used?

Since you don't have the gears yet, I would choose a 3.50 or 3.42 instead. Your 4L60E already has a real low 1st, 3.06, and with the blower you will be even more traction limited.
For the Powerdyne, I would keep the stock cam.
A tranny cooler is smart here in NorCal.
I don't think you'll be able to use a lid with the blower anyway, right? And with the medium boost level you'll get, what is it a 6 or 9psi kit, the stock TB should also be OK. You could always port it later.
All your other plans seem great!
