bolt on suggestions?

hey guys, well im finally gonna get some stuff for my evo 8.

the exhaust im planning on getting a tanabe ultra med. 3" pipe i presume? since i had a super med on my 240, it sounded great.

the boost gauge this is where i get lost because i was planning to go with the aem boost gauge/controller. anyone running this now? i was going to mount there right on the steering column. give me some feedback on it. or should I get separate boost gauge n controller?

i have a greddy turbo timer now but i need the harness but where shall i mount it?

oh yea, n i have a hks bov with the hotpipe on it as of right now.

the intercooler, i was thinking hks too but what are your suggestions?

and should I tune my ecu?

now for the intake? which would u guys suggest? i was planning on going with the hks racing.

well thanks for your suggestions.

you'll definitely need to get the tune dialed in once you get your new hardware installed or you will not get the gains you expected.
