setup for my evo

ok so i have about $7000 to spend on my car coming up in about a month or so, i already have tbe and sway bars. i want a pure daily driver car because it is the only car that i own but here was the setup i was thinking. 272 cams (possibly 272i/264e) warlboro fuel pump, arp head studs the new buschur 20g turbo w/ ams front mount. uicp and licp w/ mini battery. oh and cobb accessport w/ custom tunes for 91 octane daily driving and map for leaded race gas. then for suspension i would get some form of either muellerized or robispec coilovers, i already have wide wheels and tires. am i missing anything from this that i should add, i dont want to do alchy or meth. this car would be a every day daily driver + i would autocross it a lot and road race it about 5+ times a year. anything else i might need?

you will do much more damage running leaded race gas vs alchy or meth. I would do the meth injection with a failsafe. Also if you have that much why not a 50 trim?

i dont want a 50 trim because i want a turbo that spools as quick as stock, im not looking at big power here but a large power band, + the 50 trim cost like $4300 while the buschur turbo is like $1700 which is a big diff

see the thing is that i dont want to blow 9-10g's becaise i definately dont have that much plus i want to have this be an excellent autocross car because that is what i do mostly in the car and a gt35r would be terrible for autocross that is why i want to stick with something small and cheep like the 20g

Thank you, I learn from my mistakes, as in a 280 whp Ford Contour. Edit: other than that i would no longer put any sort of significant money into a car. There are far more important things I would invest in.

dont forget a new clutch. If you autcross it, then maybe get some pads and ss brake lines as well plus brake fluid. if you can use a 20g without new injectors then i would do that. saves you a bit of mpg for daily driving. If i had to, then i'd prolly go with 680's.

the alky kit is not good for road racing. i was talking to martin at ams and pretty much a tank of alky would last about 10 minutes on a road course. he did mention getting a smaller nozzle and turning down the boost so the alky would last longer. good luck on your mods.

If it's a daily driver, you're going to use pump gas, and you're going to occasionally autoX might I suggest the following...

Walbro 255lpm: $100
264in/264ex cams: $400
cam gears: $200
720cc injectors: $350
new headstuds & headgasket: $150
organic clutch/flywheel combo: $500
Billstein PSS9 coilovers: $1600
20G IX turbo & conversion kit: $1600

You'll have enough money left over for installation, tuning, and tires. BTW I don't think COBB has released their accessport for the Evo yet. You have plenty of options though...ECUplus, EcuTek, etc.

ECUFlash with tuner of your choice
BR intake
Walbro pump
ARP Headstud
GSC/BC cam
Forge/1G DSM DV
FMIC kit
Ebay 02 housing
Ported Stock/Full-Race Exhaust Manifold
Alky
Coilover of your choices,but i will do KW V3 since it is best bang for buck

Runing race gas will clean your engine,but burn 02 sensor.Top End EVO,he want an autocross car,not a drag car.xXxJiggaxXx,did you have hobby???Modifiying car and racing car is a hobby,not invesment + you can't bring the money when you die.Just spend the money you have when you have chance and keep some in bank.Invesment is too risky,you can gain and lost money and you will not enjoy invesment.
