And not only is it important to check the current setup of the car but why go spending money on things you might not have to replace. When it comes to problems its sometimes the small little things we over look during an install or trying to fit a part that makes the car run like garbage. My buddy had a small vac leak in his audi and completely threw the car into lip mode and he could only spike 6lbs drove him nuts till he found there was a small tiny hole in his vac line running from the compressor referenece port on his turbo..

Fuel pump upgrade not a bad idea, adjustable timing gears waste of money. IMHO

You can do the fuel pump and then drive it to them, won't be a problem at all just don't floor it all the way there. The stuff needed for the boost leak tester can be picked up at a home-depot for a very few dollars. AMS is not cheap do as much yourself as you can before you go there.
