Upgrade Advice?

Guys, I have upgraded the following on my Redtop: (inothing is yet installed)

Parts I have

- Garrett GT2871R
- Greddy VSPL FMIC
- Greddy head gasket
- Greddy Valve springs
- Greddy RAS
- Koyo Radiator
- HKS SSQ BOV
- Nissan rocker arm (replacement for broken one)
- Nissan valve cover seal
- Nissan plug well oil seals
- Nissan 555cc injectors
- Nissan water pump
- Nissan Z32 MAF
- NGK plugs
- ARP head studs & bolts
- Walbro 255FP (installed)

I am still missing

- Clutch
- Coolants/fluids
- Hotpipe
- Something to control the new fuel


My questions are:

- Will I need new silicon hoses for the new turbo charger? I know my FMIC (VSPL) should have came with all the hoses but I know the old ones that go to the turbo will most likely not fit the GT28.

- Is the Apex SAFC2 all I need to program my car to work with the Z32 & new larger injectors? I don't know if I need the SAFC and its almost $300 so want to be sure that it is a must for the swap.

- I don't know where or who can make me a hot pipe for my car. Is there someone around town or some place online that has them for my set up? I still need to get the HKS SSQ BOV flange installed on it too.

- Are the old oil lines enough to feed this new larger turbo or should I replace them with nicer fittings and lines?

Sorry for the book but I just want to make sure nothing comes up during the swap. Thanks for all info.
