Also, a couple other things...
How much boost is safe to run on the stock 2.2L bottom end?
I'm planning on a Auto Meter Cobalt Mechanical Boost gauge (was looking at the electric ones - but they're like $125 more than the mechanical), where would one plumb that to? And should I go Boost or Boost/Vac.

you'll have to buy the LSJ reservoir. theyre the exact same shape, but mirror images of each other. theres no way to mount the stock one on the other side.

u dont need that boost controller thingy, leave it out, just leave the bottom nipple open venting to atmosphere....the sensor ontop of the blower, u can leaveit there, but it wont plug into anything, the sensor on the intake manfold, take it out, and put ur MAP sensor in there, yo dont need the sensor you just took out, you need **** loads of 3/4" hose and 1/2" hose, you need a another coolant tank, ameks ure your TB harness has the same amount of pins as that throttle body, and than u still need to repin for that TB to fit...or else you might be stuck using your stock one, lemme see what else, you need 3 longer bolts for the alternator, you need to longer bolts for the intake manifold, you need of course a h/e, a intake manifold gasket for the head...thats it, there is other things, but im too lazy to really try and remember what all we ended up needed, i mentioned all theones that would of screwed u over if you didnt have the rest is self explanitory
