What mods next?

A month or two back I bought an evo with with the following engine and drivetrain mods:

-DNP S/S Turbo Exhaust Manifold
-RMR I/C Hard Pipe Kit-Polished
-B&M Short Shifter
-Alamo Braided S/S Clutch Slave Hose
-AEM short ram Intake
-Exedy Hyper Single Disk & Flywheel
-PWR Aluminum Radiator
-Perrin Silicone Radiator Hose Set
-Works Throttle Body
-Works ECU P2 Flash
-HKS Super Sequential Blow Off Valve
-HKS Electronic Idle Stabilizer
-Ultimate Racing 3" Turbo Back Exhaust System
-Ultimate Racing Intercooler
-Mitsubishi Gold Hyper Ground System
-Mitsubishi Sport Triple Meter Kit

I'm still fairly new to forced induction, as this is the first turbo car I've ever owned. My question is, with these mods do I need any mods as protection against detonation or anything of the sort, like maybe plugs or injectors? I know I'm still pretty stock, but I just want to be safe. Also, In general what do you think should be the next couple of things that I do to the engine? I was thinking about getting cams, but a friend of mine had a first gen talon with 272's, and it stalled out all over the place, I definitely don't want to have to deal with that. Any info from you guys would be very helpful.

You need a fuel pump and larger injectors. Has the car been tuned? I would assume it has?

Cams should be fine, shouldn't give you many (if any) problems, the return they give you in performance is well worth it.

The car has been tuned, and I was planning to get a fuel pump some time soon... as well as I think I should probably get a catch can.

OK, I hadn't heard about many problems with cams on evo's. My friend's car was tuned by AMS, but it still stalled.

Fuel pump, test pipe, cams, and a retune. You should not have any problems with the cams if you get them tuned properly. You should pick up quite a bit of HP from those three items. Another good idea is to ask one of the many tuners on the boards. They usually can direct you in the right way since they have tuned countless combinations.
