Default Getting a Vortech Installed soon

Hey guys, I'm picking up a v2 Vortech kit this weekend and probably will get it installed the weekend after if I can get all the parts in time. I have a list of stuff I'll be getting and would like people opinions and advice on the parts especially if I am forgetting something.

Vortech Kit w/ AC
750cc Injectors
Stock Boost crank pulley
AEM EMS 6052
Walbro 255 lph Fuel Pump

Do I need colder spark plugs? My stock clutch should hold up with the stock boost hopefully. I know I'll have to pay more in the long run to replace my clutch after I up the boost but right now I'm actually spending more then I planned so I'll be going with the necessities first.

Yes make sure and go with one heat range colder then stock. #8. NGK stock number 2668's are a proven plug for us FI guys.

Stock clutch will be fine under 10psi assuming its not been abused already.

If u have the extra money u should make a 4inch intake for you blower. The vortech (so I hear) is a bit limited. Also, since ur going with an EMS u might as well run a TP. Sparkplugs.com has decent pricing of the plugs.

haha I already bought the plugs from amazon for 32 bucks shipped.

I already have a TP and a header to run. It'd be nice to get the 4 in intake but no clue where to go for it.

I would go with a smaller pulley also 10lbs would be good with the set up you have

deff get a good exhaust if you don't have one. and getting a boost gauge to tell if your belt is slipping is pretty useful too, aswell as an afr gauge helps too. but if your have a good tuner you CAN live without the gauges but I personally couldn't.
