Default Turbo kit done. Please advise on ANY parts I missed or you would add

I just want to make sure I'm not missing any little parts. I don't want to install anything and tune it until I have every little thing. So far this is what I have...and this is all going on my stock 97 LS

Precision SC34 with .63 A/R
Inline Pro T3 SS manifold
Treadstone TR8 intercooler
Go-Autoworks 2.5" charge piping
Turbo Smart Race Port BOV
Turbo Smart 38mm Wastegate
CC stage 4 sprung clutch
Stock flywheel
FIC 900cc injectors

Greg at Go-Autoworks is making me a 3" downpipe

Things still planning to do are Swaintech coating on the manifold and possibly the downpipe, wrapping the downpipe and dump tube, and getting a PTP chrome turbo blanket. Other than that I'd like help on what other parts I need before tuning it. I believe I will use Neptune software. What kind of upgraded sensors such as MAP or others would I need along with other things?

Walbro 255 fuel pump
Moroso catch can and steel lines
You can use a GM 3 bar map sensor
Gauges mostly air fuel gauge
PWR radiator if money is not an issue but any
upgraded radiator works I guess

These parts aren't mandatory but extremely recommended. Mostly the walbro fuel pump I think that's a must actually. Also be careful with boosting a stock motor! I was going to do the exact same thing your doing but I did my research and learned it's much much better starting on internals first! Just my 2 cents! (:

Yea I forgot to add the Walbro in the list.

The catch can is something I need to look into. I want one, a good one that I won't need to relocate the battery for.

I think I saw a 4 bar map sensor on Inlinefour for not much. Would it be best to just get a 4 bar and be done with it like I did with the injectors? And thanks for reminding me about the head studs!

Not 100% sure, but wouldnt you need an OBD2 to OBD1 conversion harness and a chipped P28 for turning?

Yea I will. Right now I'm not sure how I want to run the breather system. I just looked over the official Catchcan thread but didn't see many pictures, just red x's.

What I did is researched a lot which you did already
Then I bought stuff on HT and craigslist.
A lot of people I bought stuff from on craigslist had hooked up hondas already and they showed me what I needed to do and some of them actually did it for me. So my advice is if you can find someone near you that's done it all before and have them show you but it seems like you pretty much know all the basic things you need.
