I am Building up again. here are the parts i have
- evo 8 turbo w/stock o2 housing
- evo 8 fmic
- evo 8 icp w/stock bov
- wrx injectors
- walbro 255 pump
- magan evo manifold W/ weld on lancer flange
- nkg iridium spark plugs W/wire set
- afc neo W/ wire harness
- braided oil lines
Need to get
_forge waste gate W/green spring (7-10psi)
_boost controler
_widebanb
_new bolts and nuts to put it all together
anyone know where to get new bolts and tuds? Turbo to mani and o2/h to turbo and mani to block?
also any opinions on other things i would need. Not including internals. that will be later. pistons and rods.

I would get the bolts straight from Mitsubishi. They are made to withstand the high temps the manifold and turbo will see. Not to mention that they are a direct fit. I initially used Home Depot grade 8 bolts on mine and seized a couple of the bolts from the heat. Switched to the genuine Mitsu bolts as I should have done in the first place.

good advice. Thats something I hadn't even considered. I wonder what else I am going to realize when I start to build.
Why do you need a boost controller if you are using a 7-10lb spring in your wg? Is that so you can set the boost at say.. 8lbs exactly?
So if someone were to run without a boost controller on a set up like this, their boost would be any where between 7 and 10 lbs?
Or am I all messed up?

You don't need a boost controller. Your wastegate will open at 7psi and not build anymore boost. Boost controller is only if you want to increase your boost. Plus you will probably have a 1psi drop in pressure from the intercooler so you will be running closer to 6psi.
