Sounds like you've got it pretty well covered, unless ya' wanna upgrade the fuel pump while you're in there... be sure to inspect the fuel lines while you have access to them, a while back one of mine by the tank rubbed through due to poor routing

Im considering going with an upgraded fuel pump but im not sure what one. I dont plan on modding the car all to much maybe 300-350hp.

Why would you recommend an adjustible fpr? Is the stock fpr a restriction or is it for setting a different pressure?

^ ^Because he said he may upgrade to 300-350 hp maybe, always better to do the job right the first time, (it's for fine tuning fuel pressure)
