is this build ok?

hey i decided on the setup and route im going to take for now let me know if this seems ok..

hi boost budget kit
voltage clamp and fmu ( i dont plan on exceeding 5-6psi )
walbro 255 fuel pump
turboxs rfl bov
trans cooler w/syn fluids

after reading up on post and the net i came down to the conclusion this will be suitable for my goal ( as of right now ) of 160-170 crank hp without having to worry about tuning and fuel/ecu issues... with the full list in front of you do you see any flaws in the setup?..now keep in my this is what my budget and goal permits..idealy yes i would love the full hiboost kit and internals but i cant do it right now, but i want to go boost right now so i figure this would get me going and i can upgrader later. thanks for taking the time to read over this and welcome all suggestion..ooh where can i find the gauge pod that goes under the radio or by the radio..or that goes on the steering column

that setup will be 200+bhp easily. Juans stuff is very solid and I'd have no hesitations using his products like you've got it planned out.

I'd think you'd be able to run 8psi or so safely without an intercooler.

Im thinking the the Hiboost budget kit comes with all the hardware you need, just no enginer managment stuff. Even a better choice than getting a voltage clamp ect, would be to get your ECU reflashed to a mazdaspeed protege. This would give you the fuel maps you need to run 5-6 psi with no issues!!

the budget kit comes with an inner cooler just no bov and no ems..

phals i have an auto so i dont think i could run the msp ecu setting?..but will the clamp and fmu be sufficent enough to handle the 5-6 psi?

The ecu would just make it alot safer than a clamp, as for the auto, to be honest I have no idea.
