Congratulations Ryan enjoy your new turbo.
Get a FMIC instead.The problem with the TMIC's
is the heat soak issue.

An aftermarket TMIC will hold up to about 450hp or so comfortably but with the FMIC you have to deal with boost lag and poppin seals. and the Exedy stage 2 will work fine with those numbers. No need to change the flywheel the heavier ones are better with the AWD to keep the momentum up in the transmission between shifts.
