New TII engine about to be installed, what other mods will I need to be safe?

Kevin Landers @ Rotary Resurrection should be building my engine soon (when hes done building the other 3 people's who signed up the same week as me :P) and I am wondering what kind of stuff should be done to make sure my engine will be as safe as possible.

Here is what my setup will be:

s4 t2 motor - no porting
stock turbo (should i port it, remove twin scroll or check it, ect)
3 inch RB exhaust (i think im gonna have a shop build me a pipe to replace the cat)
Fuel Cut defenser
Homemade BOV - will get a new one soon when I have a job
K&N airfilter with TID mod
new plugs and wires
Walboro 255 fuel pump (If i had this earlier, I wouldnt need the new engine =( )

Ok offer me any suggestions to any saftey procautions which I should look into before I start running 'er hard.

upgraded oil pressure system.. and fuel.. if you have the cash go and buy a SAFC or sumpthing.. that sounds like pretty safe.. but if i had my engine out i would be tempted to port it a bit.. i think you should but stay small if you want..
