Re:Tell me what you think of my soon to be setup
You could also wait for the group buy coming up here real soon and buy a CCA FMIC for like $210. You could also buy a complete oil line kit from Stealthmode for around $110 and save yourself the headache and some extra dollars. They are nice kits. 
Other than that and what Bigwig pointed out, it looks good. I don't know about the A/F gauge deal though. Are you talking about the blue wire mod? That's kinda iffy if you ask me.
It's still not accurate, just like the Autometer A/F gauge.

Re:Tell me what you think of my soon to be setup
replace your fuel pump, and an apexi turbo timer/auto timer have 4 in one, af voltage,af ratio, volt meter,and timer, and if cost is an issue get dsm bov it still do the job for about $160 less than a brand name, and if you plan to upgrade later forget the hack, get a more complete management seystem, its more expensive but you wont regret it because I went with the hack, and now I want more. in other words you are on track. what car are you putting this on?

Re:Tell me what you think of my soon to be setup
sorry should have specified that...98 civic ex. I am going to keep the exhaust that i have on the car now - 2.25 resonator back. will the stock clutch hold any boost at all? yeah im guessing the a/f gauge would be a good idea. BTW the front mount sounds great, i would love to get it on that. im going to start piecing the parts together now. unfortunately i go back to school so i will probably be installing everything in march (spring break). thanks for all the replies. kind of OT: what kind of sound does the DSM BOV make? anyone have any clips?
