Oh no, not an explosion! Agreed. Spend some time tuning the thing.

I tune for sure, and if you are upgrading your turbo upgrading your fuel delivery system is a good idea. Like fuel pump, fuel rail, injectors. But dont go any further without getting a custom tune, it just wont be that safe untill your tuned

what are your goals for the car? If you JUST put the other parts on, why don't you just enjoy the car for a while?

the car will run fine in it's current state. however, when you upgrade the turbo you'll have to upgrade the FMIC, fuel system (pump, injectors, possibly rail) as well so it gets pricey.

FP Red - $1,500
FMIC w/licp - $800
800cc injectors - $400
Walbro 255 - $100
Fuel Rail - $250 (optional maybe?)
Custom tune - $500 (approx.)

so yes, don't install/tune anything until you're getting all these at once.
