Default what else do i need for the greddy turbo kit?

i have a d16z6
i want to buy th greddy kit w/ out the intercooler (ill buy one later)
i plan on running 5 maybe 7 at the track
i think i need a ,blow off valve, and the missing link think so i get no cel codes

is it safe to run 5 psi w/ ni intercooler for a month or so
i tried a search but im still unsure

if your not getting the intercooler, you don't need anything else...the kit comes with everything you need. don't get a boost controller because you don't want to boost any more than the preset level.

IMO the only thing you need is a blow-off valve in addition to the kit (prevents compressor surge which will prolong the life of the turbo). An intercooler is not necssary for the kit at such low boost. I would recommend you also get a boost gauge to monitor what you're boosting but it is not necessary either. The Greddy kit is a pretty complete kit for running the pre-set boost.

you won't need missing link because the black box takes care of that. As stated above, the greddy kit is pretty complete. You'll probably need a clutch and bov. Boost gauges are nice to have also. I have a friend that's been running his setup unintercooled for a year now, no problems.
