necessary upgrades?

OK I've opened my exhaust to a 3" exhaust system and have K&N filter w/3" flange adapted to air intake. I've ported my wastegate and will be looking into getting a Walbro 255 lph fuel pump, ( no cats., no air pump, and no ACV!) My question I guess is what else and what next? My main concern is to not hurt the engine, by not doing something I should have.
Thanks

Well if you ported the wastegate and are getting no boost creep, then you have nothing to worry about right now. Get the Walbro, a boost controller, and S-AFC. Then set the boost to about 10 PSI and bring it to a dyno with a wideband to have it tuned via the S-AFC.

I was thinking about this the other day, ill throw out some things I was thinking about and people can say yah or nah to them: wideband 02; better knock sensor?; air/fuel meter; aftermarket boost gauge... cant think of the other stuff now.
FCD will be something you want.

OK S-AFC if I'm not mistaken is an anti- fuel cutoff switch that prevents the fuel from being shut off to the rear rotor, I am going to get one of them just forgot to mention it. Any suggestions on what boost controllers to get? Also don't know what a FCD is.

thats an FCD it makes your car not shut fuel off to rear rotor. it also tells the computer that you are running lower psi then you actally are. i would recommened the rtek1.5 chip instead of an fcd if i were you. www.pocketlogger.com also an safc is what you can tune bigger injectors with. you can tune for perfect a/f with a wideband o2 sensor.
