Anything i'm missing?

Other than the proper tools for the setup, are there any misc. parts I should be adding to this list, i'm talking small stuff that i've skipped over. I want this to be a pretty safe setup with decent power gains.

Racing beat turboback with all neccessary gaskets
S-AFC
Walbro 255
A'pexi Intake
CreepingDeath FCD
Ported wastegate to stock flapper
FP Rewire
New O2 sensor
Manual boost controller
DEFI boost gauge
A/F gauge
Possibly new BOV
Dyno tuned

I might have missed a few minor things, but feel free to pick apart my planned setup and add/remove whatever you feel would be neccessary for a good system.

I'd reccomend the rtek v1.5 over the creepingdeathFCD. Porting to the stock flap on the s4 turbo won't be enough to stop boost creep once you open up the intake, weld on a larger flap in addition to porting the wastegate hole larger.

dont get a a/f gauge, it is horribly inaccurate with a narrow band. ask anyone on here with one all it is a neon light up light that moves back and forth. spend money else where.

also if you have a s4 you defintly need to get a new flapper, i ported mine to stock flapper and i hit 14psi. then i put new flapper on and help 6psi. um you might wanan make a new TID.

I already have the creepingdeath FCD. Nothing fancy really needed for that, not going to throw my money away on something that does the same thing this cheaper one can do. Also I have an S5, so that takes care of the wastegate porting stuff, as well as the fact that to my knowledge the Rtek stuff is only for S4's?

As far as the A/F gauge, i've heard different stuff from different people. Basically I dont want to tune by it or anything, but have it as a little backup thing just in case I might catch some pattern. Plus I got a free dual gauge pod and needed something to fill it up, and for $20 used for one, I wasn't really breaking the bank.

The SAFC already has an A/F gauge built in anyway.

i would go with water temp or oil pressure. in the other hole. my friend has the autometer af gauge adn when he is ideling it just bounces around. thats how all the ones ive seen. but if its only $20 and you need to fill the hole go for it, but dont tune from it or expect it to be accurate in anyway. i guess you could notice changes from if somethign bad happend.

sorry offtopc for thread here
and is there an online manuel for safc2? becase mine only came in japanese, and i hear it can do all sorts of thing but i cant figure them out.
