With that head / valvetrain setup you should do just fine. The SC44 is a nice turbo too. As to how much boost, I guess as much as you want with a real good tune (400 can be made at higher boost and race gas). I think the .48 housings like up to 15 psi before you should switch to a .63 but I could be wrong about that.

The only things I didn't see right away on your list are oil lines, gauges, and a boost controller, but you may have just listed the bigger stuff.

I see you are in VA, if you need a really good tuner, call Joe at Tempest Racing in Southern Maryland (301-638-3000). Honest guy and a nice shop.

 

yea i have the oil lines, boost, air fuel, and oil pressure gauges, and am looking for a boost controller, thanks for the insite

 

anyone else??
