Default Besides simply bolting on my turbo kit, what else should i do?

Planning to install my drag gen. 3 turbo kit on my ITR, but what else should I do besides simply bolting on the kit. Should I run colder spark plugs? Retard the timing? etc...

Timing rolled back would be good as well as running colder plugs..

5 degrees is too much retard unless you are running more than 9psi. I would set base timing around 14-15 deg.
