1. You are going to want/need something to tune the PFC... Either the datalogit software or the handheld controller

2. You don't want/need 4 1600cc injectors, I think just 2 1300's in the secondary's place would be enough

3. The power intake system you can get from Jason at rx7store for $212.00 I believe.

The brands of products you picked seem ok to me..

Oh and if you are doing the hose job yourself you should be able to get the hoses or even a hose kit from hosetechniques.com for less than $200.00..

I'd skip all the body kit stuff and put it toward performance parts. Instead of upgrading twin turbos for 3k, I would spend 3k on a single turbo. Heres my list of what I would do.

Cool man, 2 1300cc injectors, was a stab in the dark on that.

And I will include a commander then with my ECU, so add another 250.

Hoses and plugs and plug wires I guess would be around 200.

Add another 5k for labor, think thats enough? Trying to keep it all under 20k.

Hey, what about an intercooler? Oh, and you don't really need a fuel pressure regulator untill you get into some massive hp and high boost.

I hear ya, but I like that look, Plus, I dont really like the single turbo set up, from what I have READ, correct me if I'm wrong, I have yet to drive a single turbo 7, but I hear bad things about the low end. I like twisty roads and still think that the twins is plenty, this setup is going to take me to 400HP and I'll still have power under 4k...

So Intercooler would be better then fule reg, true I im thinking about keeping it under 14psi boost, I think that would be plenty for my blood.

Yeah, skip the fpr. I would go with the apexi fmic and intake system....somewhere around $1200. I am using the apexi single turbo, which has hardly any noticable lag and is ball bearing also. The m2 twin system will lag just as much as this turbo, since they have been enlarged. Basically both are capable of the same amount of power, but this will clean up your engine bay and keep things really simple. You can also take off the intake system, downpipe, and any kind of wastegate modifications since the kit comes with these.

youre getting the kit and spoiler without sideskirts, rims, or suspension? it might look kinda funny, but i guess thats the look youre going for...

you might probably consider getting a bigger intercooler if youre going to get that deep into the game.

besides that, it sounds like a plan to me

If your running an open exhaust (downpipe, midpipe, cat-back) you will probably not notice the turbo lag unless you're running a huge turbo. And the available power will be much bigger. More potential, and more reliable.

All of this is I plan to do on a 94 touring.

Steering wheel $160...are they that cheap...$230 for my mazdaspeed and that didn't include the hub

Pedals $60 just get s cwr widefoot pedal

Mazdaspeed Leather Shift **** $55.00 sounds about right

GT-C Rear Wing $850.00 I love that wing too

GT-C Front Bumper $940.00 good choice..side skirts maybe

Vacuume Hoses $200 more like 400 if you want somebody to do it for you

Pettit's AST - Cant Find price est: #120 personally I'd eliminate it..~60 bucks

HKS 60mm Electrical Temprature Gauge with Peak Hold/Warning $279.00 water temp???why the PFC will do that

Racingbeat Dual Tip Exhaust System: $475.00 [COLOR=red]good choice /COLOR]

HKS Downpipe $199.00 with the money I just saved you on the above temp gauge..buy a better dp..something SS..m2,sr,pettit,rx7fashion

Koyo Aluminum Radiator $375.00 sounds about right

Apexi Power Intake System $399.00 my personal fav intake box = rx7fashion

HKS 60mm Mechanical Boost Gauge (Black Face) $114.00 sounds about right

Apexi Power FC $850.00 try around 1100 if you want a commander which I highly suggest

Greddy Turbo Timer $125.00 sounds about right

Pettit High Flow Cat. $495.00 sounds about right

Nippondenso Competition Fuel Pump $250.00sounds about right

Bosch 1600cc Injectors $125.00 Per $500 totalw/1600 you are no longer side feed meaning you need a fuel rail also..highly recomment getting the 850 magically turned into 1300 like other have suggested

SX Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator 35-90 PSI $163.50personally I dont think you need it at this mod level

ACT Street/Strip Clutch + 10lb Aluminum Flywheel (Includes counterweight) $885.00 sounds about right

Mazdaspeed Short Shift Kit $289.00 sounds about right

M2 Strut Tower Brace $189sounds about right

M2 Ball Bearing Twin Turbo Upgrade Set $2995sounds about right

And to top it off: 13B STREET PORT W/ SPECIAL HD 3MM APEX SEALS $3599.95 (From Pettit)
sounds about right

Thanks for the large response, I will most likely redo my list in favor of keeping it all under 20k including the labor that I will need, some things I can do myself, but not all.

Man getting very difficult to get everything I want for what my current budget is . I'm looking hard into a single turbo system now, and will prob end up forgoing the new motor and just run my current one until it goes south. Suspension and breaks will also need to be added, thanks.

Just to give you an idea of price. I added up everything on my list and it roughly comes out to about 12k. That doesn't include the new street ported motor, or labor.

Since you're already spending big bucks, I'd add a J&S and CWR Dual Oil Coolers (or the rotaryextreme gigantic oil cooler) to that list... can never be too safe.
