ok folks I am about doing hp upgrades till I go single, so, what is the next logical step?

1993 R1
current mods:
pfs smic, intake, & dp
apexi pfc
rb cat back
efini y-pipe
blitz boost & temp gauges
small stereo upgrade

my end goal:
single trubo with M2 med/large smic
17 or 18 inch wheels ??? wheels
replace springs/struts - coilovers?
99 j-spec front end & wing and a vented hood

I think I will wait to do the body parts till I am ready to repaint my car (don't have that sorta cash atm)
do I need/should I have a boost controller?
how bout a b&m short shifter?
should I buy Konis & Eibach springs, or are true coilovers worth the extra expense?
I have no idea what wheels I want, so I think that should wait as I don't want to buy the wrong ones.

any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

I guess it all depends on what you are going to use your car for- - - racing , track, autoX, or street. It looks like you have all the reliability mods already, As far as suspension, again it is dependent on what you are using the car for. I am strictly street and my suspension setup is Koni yellows with H&R springs. See sig for the rest. By no means am I an expert, but glad to offer you my .02 worth. Good luck!

more fuel! 1300cc or 1600 depending on how much boost your planning to run. fuel pump will be nice too.

my car is 90% street use, so would coilovers give me something that konis & spings wouldn't?

I have been told by a VERY reliable souce that I don't need fuel system upgrades with my current performace mods. I was planning on waiting to do all that mess when I go single turbo/large SMIC. is my plan flawed?

No flaw dude. With my previous rx7, I had a single setup and havn't even upgraded the fuel injectors or lines and also not the fuel pump. Some might brand me as usable livestock for doing such a trivial thing , but that's just to show you how much some people know and how much some other's don't.
