Default What should I do next????

I am about to put everything on and already I am thinking of what to do next.
I am using the MavRev turbo, manifold and downpipe setup. The rest:
Tial wg with .45 bar spring
Vortech FMU 12:1 with stock injectors
1G DSM BOV
Bosch inline fuel pump
Modified starion IC with 2.25 piping moved to the sides
2.25 mandrel exhaust with Apex Dunk muffler and stock cat

What should I do next? I think that I would like to stay with about 7 psi or so.
Im kinda leaning towards a nice intercooler. I really like the Apex Silvia core in the civic. I remember someone posting the pic of their car with the IC, ive been searching for like an hour for that pic with no luck. Or maybe a different bov. I dont want to waste money on an SAFC cause I will eventually go hondata in the next year or so. So that pretty much leaves out bigger injectors since 440's wont idle without a fuel computer like that.
What would you do??

theres so many other things you can do to get the right setup. but even if you get the right setup, youll want more power and blah blah blah. in this case, you got a pretty good setup already. in the future, when u get the hondata, it will be more reliable. if you boost more, then you will need to upgrade your ignition and so forth. the more you boost, the more you need to upgrade.

If you are running an LS motor, PnP job will be nice, had one on my last LS/turbo setup, it was out of hand, lost some lowend tq, but at 5.1K, there was a tremendous surge of power that feels like Vtec!

P.S. I am selling an LS longblock (w/PnP head) if you are interested.

Appearance-wise, I really like the way the Apex's Intercooler looks. But I have no idea whether it fits nor how efficient it is. Here are pictures stolen from Apex'i.
