Hey everyone, I currently own a 92 Frost White CB7 Coupe, Ive had it for 5 or 6 years now and have slowly done small mods like I/H/E, lowering springs and shocks. Also about 2 years ago I did the JDM F22B DOHC swap and it runs like a champ with a chipped P28 ECU tuned on Chrome. Car made about 158HP to the wheels on the dyno which isn't bad. After the swap I instantly wanted more power! Looked into the H22A swap, but did not want NA. Instead I wanted to boost the my current engine. Reading a lot through here I know stock internals are horrible for reliability, which is currently the most I would like to retain from my car. It has never left me stranded in 6 years (fingers crossed).
So currently i want to shoot for 300+ hp and here is the list of mods that I have bought and plan to buy in the next coming weeks.

WORKING ON BUYING IN THE NEXT COMING WEEKS:
Innovative Traction Bar - Going to need this since the turbo has a 3in exhaust
Intercooler - Thinking an "eBay" kit to save money since its not a vital component. Any recommendation on sizing or thoughts?
AEM Gauges - Boost & Oil Pressure
Walbro 255LPH Pump - I am thinking internal. Would external be any better or added benefit ?
Boost Controller - Thinking maybe this one: http://www.titanmotorsports.com/fomounboco.html They are close and reputable so I think that will work. They also have a cheaper $45 one that is not ratcheting style.
Turbosmartl 38mm Wastegate w/ 15lb spring - Found this on craigslist recently and plan on buying this week for $125
Omni 4 Bar Map Sensor - Idk if I really need this? When is this necessary?
SS Lines & AN Fittings
Again this build already has started and I have done a lot of research on parts and what does and doesn't work. Any constructive criticism on the build is welcome. The way i plan on doing this is dropping in the fully built bottom end with the new clutch and breaking that in for about 500-1000 miles and then installing the turbo components. The reason I am doing this is just because I can see if there is any oil leaks before adding the turbo. Plus it lets me save some money to buy any other missing parts before adding the turbo. If there is anything you guys think i should look into, for example, a Greddy Turbo Timer then please shoot the idea my way as this is the first build I have done.
Thanks again and sorry if this is in the wrong spot lol I felt like this could fall in multiple categories.
Also Ill add pictures of the car as it currently is later on this week and some of the parts
