Default $500 what would be a smart investment?

So far I have a fully built H23 bottom end, and my head has just been shipped off to KMS for a full build up. I hear KMS is kinda slow and I prob. wont see my head for about a month or so. Anyways I was gonna use this money to by my gaskets and head studs but I figured I would push it off for another month. What would be a good investment for my turbo setup. So far I have bought nothing turbo related...give opinions.

Yeah. Hondata doesn't control boost. You can get an s200 with boost capability for under $500.00.

Save a little bit more and buy a quaiffe LSD. While the motor is apart you can install it into the trans. Especially with H motors that are real torquey you will need it later down the road.
I wish I spent money on drivetrain first, cause now I have this sick buildup and no real way of putting it down.
