Unless your going for bling points your wasting alot of $$. An fp Green would make thoes numbers and you wont need all the extras

IMHO: Buy yourself a transmission 1st (PPG Gearset) and save yourself a headache. Sounds like you might have the money if youre considering a rotated GT30R kit.

best turbo upgrade you can get for a 2.0L WRX. Only time you want to go bigger is when you have 2.5L to spool it. Otherwise you wont be getting boost until around 4500 RPMs, and you wont be getting much from the turbo for long.
tranny isnt necessary if you know how to drive, and I mean really know, not you know how to make it move.
