I'd suggest getting DiPricol Optix gauges. They're really nice, and lit by LED's. I have Isspro EV's, and they're also pretty nice.

Skip the boxes you chose and go with one, a TST PMCR w/ R49 remote. Buy it once and be done with it. If you need more later, then stack it with something like a MP-8 or EZ.

The OFE is sweet, and so is the Technicooler. If you're going to upgrade your turbo, get yourself a BD blow-off valve. Your turbo will thank you for it.

Oh, and skip the cosmetics for now and get yourself a SPS66 or Silver Bullet, or something comparable.

My $.02 (plus a couple g's)

I'd highly recommend Sage Carli for your suspension.....more bang for your buck. I run some of his stuff and it's pretty sweet. I'm running a pair of Fox 10" shocks (long story, my 12" Kings are too long until the shackle flip is done) from a KORE kit, and I don't care for the way they're valved.

Great guy to deal with, you can find him here www.thecarlisuspension.com
