Installing engine, what can I leave out?

okay.. I'm putting my engine back in the car (actually, its allready in, I'm just assembling it).. I don't give a damn about emmissions, I've got a 3" exhaust.....

I'm keeping P/S and A/C.. cats are gone, airpump is gone.. so is the airpump exhaust. stock airbox is still there (for now).

I want to run 8-10 PSI of boost, if that matters... the car is my daily driver so IT MUST STAY DRIVABLE!

I've got a blockoff plate made for my ACV.. I think I need to keep my BAC though because of the PS and AC.

I'm running TMIC for now, but I'll have a front mount within about 2 months...

what else should I do/mod while I'm here?

I totally cleaned the engine bay, so you don't need to say that...

Sounds good to me. How about the TB mod?

you wont need the BAC valve ... just up your idle a tad bit ... so it doesnt dip too low and cause to stall ...
