Default b20 turbo in an ek

so i bought a b20b earlier this year and have been buying the rest of the part i need, or at least all i think i need. Was just wondering if i was missing anything... oo and i have a t3/t4 turbo for it too...

B20 long block
Ls tranny
b18b intake manifold
ACT clutch
ACT Flywheel
Turbo exhaust manifold
p75 ecu(will i need this or can i use obd2 ecu?)
skunk2 Obd2 to Obd1 ecu harness
and i think thats about all... what else should i purchase before throwing this all in? and would the stock b20b internals be capable of handling 8 lbs of boost for a daily driver

Injectors
Wastegate
BOV
I/C
Charge pipes
Oil line
P75 should be fine since you have the jumper harness

5-8lbs if fine for a stock b20T daily. Just make sure you have a good tune and trust your tuner!

And you do know that the first time you get pulled over by the cops and are asked to pop your hood you are screwed right?

At least if you were going B18b1-T you could take the turbo off and slap on your stock parts along with a few other mods and pass BAR ref... with the B20 and the B20-T you are not going to pass.
