cometic headgasket, head studs, intake, 3 inch exhaust, manual boost set @ 11psi. Im getting the headgasket and head studs put on at a shop in my city, im going to get them to tune my baby at 11 psi. I can't WAIT!!! ive experienced a whole summer last year of it stock, so she will be a whole new beast this summer. now ill drive her again for 4-5 months, blow her up and do this all over again next year.

Why would it blow up? Are you intentionally taking short cuts? Does the car run properly now as it is? Are you having your injectors cleaned and flow tested? You should be fine to run for a long time with that set up...I have the same setup right now...and I haven't had a problem. Just don't be a dumbass and reach for the boost controller:biglaugh:

What did you plan on having tuned?? That would maybe help you on what controller/gauges/"devices" that you might need in order to tune the engine and make changes later on. A wideband would be very ideal along with maybe an aftermarket boost, water temp, and oil pressure gauges (if you dont have those already).
