Am I missing anything huge?

From what I have gathered I'm pretty sure I'm covered but just to be safe.
I have an 82 na block and head. I doing a turbo conversion. And this is my plan
walbroro fuel pump
600cc injectors
Megasquirt ecu and wiring harness
T3-t4 hybrid turbo
Run e85
High output coil
Everything else stock. But rebuilt
And I missing anything? Huge?
I'll have turbo clutch
And inter cooler running 15lbs??
But what I really don't know is aesthete parts needed for this swap excluding stockturbo parts(already have)
Prob missing valuable details but that all ugly off the top of my head lol

bring it up to me, ill build it. id go a bit smaller on the injectors tho. that turbo won't need that much fuel, plus it won't idle all that well without fouling the plugs. some 440's are more than enough for that. don't forget a new fuel rail and fpr to compensate with the new pump and pressures

MegaSquirt is the way to go - every upgrade will benefit from it. 600cc injectors are too big. As Matt said 440cc should be fine. You'll want an intercooler and exhaust. Figure out your budget first and we can give you a little more direction. If you do want someone to build your car take it to Matt for sure. I sent the guy who bought my 280ZXT over to him and he was thrilled with the results.

There are certainly guys on here that have built l28et engines for others, and that is certainly one route. If you decide to get your hands dirty, let me know if you need an extra pair. I'm pretty sure I kno how to vet out there, still. It wasnt too difficult. I also noticed an s30 on my way out just around the corner. They might even be on the forum somewhere.
