JDL kit Last Minute Tips/Things to look out for

[AldoRaine]

Hey guys,
so my JDL kit should be here in about 2 weeks or so (by the way huge shoutout to Jesse from JDL for kicking ass at what he does), I'm looking to get some last minute tips for things to lookout for, and to routinely monitor, and just good knowledge & pro-tips from you veterans with boost kits, specifically turbo, more specifically the Jdl kit, on ways to keep a good eye on the car and make sure my baby is running healthy and happy.

I should be in the 280-300 whp range from what I've seen others make on the 7psi spring.

I will be monitoring oil temp, afr, coolant temp, and knock correction with Ecutek bluetooth. Any other recommendations on things to monitor via Ecutek?

I apologize if this is repetitive, or other threads have similar questions. It's just that moving to FI is a huge step and I'm very cautious and wish to take EVERY step necessary to ensure my engine is healthy. That way I know if something unfortunate did happen I know it wasn't from me not trying my best to be cautious.

Mod list here:
UEL header
GT2860RS
Pre welded oil pan
JDL bash bar
Thermal coating on hot parts
Open Dump (I'll run the 7 psi spring)
Oil cooler (haven't sorted out yet most likely Setrab or Mocal core)
Radium dual catch can setup (recirculated)
Southbend stage 2 daily clutch
exedy oem flywheel (just buying new don't wanna deal with resurfacing)
stock fans
stock fuel pump
stock injectors
stock engine 2017 86
93 octane
Will be tuned by Zach @ CSG (very excited heard great things about him)

*Also if it matters here's the rest of my mods
Tein Flex z
cosmis 18x9
invidia catless non resonated front pipe
greddy revolution rs catback

Thanks so much guys for taking the time to read this if you stuck around to read it all, it means a lot.

Get a forged clutch fork and pivot and change it while you have the transmission dropped.

Get a Killer B oil pickup tube while you have the pan off

Monitor the road in front of you, as your orientation to it may change much more suddenly than anticipated.
Be sure that you clamp the lines under the intake manifold
For the love of goodness, park over cardboard and check for oil leaks before, during, and after every drive for the first month.

Anything you find on the cardboard, you need to swab with a finger and smell to determine where it came from and why it's not staying there.
Really consider a turbo blanket after you've determined that there is nothing leaking.

I don't have a boosted car, but I know how much the motor and transmission moves around even stock. I would get install at least some motor mounts and if you can install them in the whole driveline.

I'm new here, but just wanted to say welcome to the club I got my kit on a few months ago and am just now buttoning up the tune through Delicious. I had a big headache because my MAP sensor was reading higher boost than actually present and we thought there was an issue with the wastegate. Analog gauges are your friend, and be prepared to do some troubleshooting. The kit is built incredibly well and you will love it! the car will literally transform into a little monster and you need to make sure your driving chops are up to it. I used to slam through turns when I was stock and have fun, now I am acutely aware of the fact that my car is actively trying to break its ass end out and get rowdy. Do not underestimate what a FI FA20 is capable of, its nothing like the factory car
