plans for this summer: good?

hey guys, i plan on doing a few mods this summer and wanna know what yall think. Right now my mods are:
- HKS dp
- HKS carbon Ti
- apexi intake
- efini y-pipe
- manual boost controller set to 10psi
- HKS ssqv bov
- tein springs
- autometer boost gauge
- and a B&M short shifter on the way
beginning of june i plan on getting an Apexi Power FC and run the base mod map, after that get a blitz FMIC, then maybe a fuel pump and injectors, and near the end of the summer get it dyno tuned at KDR in PA and put a midpipe on at the same time. (unless there is a place closer to Richmond, VA who can tune a power fc)
so what do you guys think?
thanks,
Craig

Those are good things but I would wait until winter to do it - enjoy the weather until then. Otherwise, have fun!

I have to second this notion. Last summer my car was apart every weekend, the only time I had to work on it, and I barely got a chance to drive it.

Make a reservation with KDR now! They're probably booked for the next 2 months already.

If you like the blowoff valve because it looks pretty in your engine bay, then get it. Otherwise you are pissing away your cash.
