This vehicle is a primary source of transport for my Wife, Kids and G/Kids and simply can't be off the Rd for extended period other than initial fitting and tuning.
If I'm going to do any mods, they have to work first time, not spend the next 2 yrs trying this or that.
Hence the reason I'm being so persistent with this thread.
Thanks to all for input so far.
Leaning towards .
After market ecm.
Reco, balanced efi engine.
molly rings.
oil cooler.
lower comp.
larger injectors.
Performance fuel pump and reg.
tuned pipe header.
twin pipe dump for better flow and reduced lag.
Garrett turbo water and oil.
twin electronic turbo controller.
intercooler with recirculating pressure relief valve.
egt sensor and gauge.
Knock sensor monitor.
pcv catch can.
most pipe work and mods done at home.
head de-comp and both ports smoothed out.
engine and most pipe work done prior to fitting into car and up and running.
possibly install 2nd intake manifold tubes for LPG injection also as alternate fuel.
but this is in first stages of thought and planing.
these 2nd fuel rails are available for additional fuel performance applications.
but would have to be taken into consideration from the build starting point and ecm.
Will see.
but don't expect anything to soon.
as this is a long process to do it right first time as you can appreciate .
Cheers.
