If you pick up a drag, rev-hard, greddy, those will be fine for daily driving. As long as your are boosting around 7psi or so on stock everything. I wouldn't go higher on the boost if you have stock everything else. The kits will include everythign you need to run 7psi. It will come with bov, intercooler, turbo fmu.. etc. The skyline intercooler is a over kill for a 7psi car. Expect to lose hp from using the skyline intercooler becuae you wont be pushing enough CFM for that intercooler. The standard intercoolers that come with most of these kits are good for 350whp..

yup what he said is true.
bov=hks or greddy type s
intercooler= any ... since your only boosting 7psi(wussie j/k )
wg=tail (if you need one)
turbo kit for a DAILY DRIVER...um greddy period.
