That's a lot of money needed for those mods. You can't reach the full potential with those mods on the 5-speed. I would do this,

- catless DP
- Hallman pro RX boost controller
- Walbro 255 fuel pump
- APS 70mm cai
- STi TMIC
- VF34,39,52,43
- Perrin AFTA
- Tial 38mm EWG
- Perrin 2.4 turbo inlet
- DW1300cc injectors
- group N motor mounts
- Get EQ tuned
If you ran E85 with this set up you'll make 300-350 whp

why do you need more then one gas station? you are really close to the Plaserville station right? Do what us e85 guys do, if you know you are going on a long drive just take some corn juice with you haha

Build the motor and the trans before doing anything huge like that. You'll save yourself the headache when you can plan ahead, not when something blows up.
