A) Learn to type slower and with more accuracy.

B) To water cool your what? Engine? it's already water cooled. You want to water cool your intake track? As in a water to air intercooler?

C) Boost control is easy. Get a boost controller. There are plenty of these on the market.

My ultimate suggestion for you: Read. Read books on turbocharger theory, turbocharging, NA tuning; anything you can get your hands on. You'll need it.

agreed, boost controller and turbo timer. The stage III kit is intercooled so thats not a problem. Get gauges, you'll want to know whats going on. Otherwise I say focus on the rest of the car (BRAKES!, suspension, etc)

I don't know what the engine managment is for the stage III but that should be your primary concern.

I would get the link wich would tap into your ecu's harness.

It a little expensive but check out how much a new engine would cost and maybe that will convince you to spend the extra cash.

Socks on the turbo timer. They're bollocks anyway. But get the aftermarket ECU and you'll be the cats meow!
