Right guys.
In my quest to get some more power from my FD I have been slowly buying parts, I think I\'m almost there but before I go and order any more parts I thought I\'d post a list of what I have and see if there is anything obvious that I am missing.
10mm Magnecour Lead
Greddy/Trust SMIC
Apexi Induction Kit with Metal Pipes
Down Pipe
Feed Mid pipe
Catback
Boost Controller
Apexi ECU
Viton Check Valves
850cc Primarys
FPR
The bits i think i still need are;
Fuel pump (was thinking supra pump what do you think)
Samco Couplers to to replace all the rubber mazda Ones
Mikalor Clamps
Vac Line to plumb boost controller solenoid in
Aeroquip Connectors and Braided Hose
What does any one think then am I missing anything?

The most important one Brakes!
Ask a tuners advice i\'ve heard the 10mm leads can give problems.

Brakes are already done, that was the first thing I did, Black diamond disks all round and hawk pads, braided lines, decent fluid and some ducting.
Been using the 10mm for about 6 months now and no problems yet.

Looks like my list!!! :D
I\'ve gone with 8mm leads though and a bosch 040 fuel pump.
Just out of interest what figures do you think we will be looking at or will it be more about drivability etc.?
Also what about uprated plugs as well?
Cheers and all the best with it.
Boshe 044 fuel pump ( the only pump you will ever need ), swirl pot, upgraded fuel lines through out, HKS Twin Spark, Oil Catch Tank, Metal AST ( Pettit is the best--Oh and I now have one for sale ) Water Injection, PFC, Boost controler. Can\'t think of any more at the moment but there is more.
When I started my modding I over specked everything, because I knew I would be going single at some stage and because I had used the best from the start I only had to buy it once. HTH.:wave
As John said this is the key if you want to keep the costs down buy the best you can then you only need to get it once.

I\'m over specing everything to so I can go singe as some point too, john can you let me know what you want for the AST as its on the list of things i want.
I\'m going to go for the supra pump to start with just to get everything up and running but the plan is to eventaully go with uprated lines, everything on aeroqiup connectors with swirl pot.
Twin spark is on the list but I just can\'t afford to spend huge sums of money at the moment, basically i just want to know if I\'m missing somthing obvious to make all the stuff I already have work.

So before I get ordering anyone think of anything else I might need?

It\'s unlikely you\'ll need the vac line for the boost controller: if you buy new, you\'ll more than likely to get the hose with it. Unless you want a colour co-ordinated engine bay that is.
Bought it second hand mate, only bit I\'m missing is the vac line for it.

Not realy Problems but i found they don\'t fit in the stock location so you have to play with them a bit to get them to fit. Once they are on they work fine.
