    Welcome.

    Skip the turbo timer and accessport. You'll want a custom tune, likely OpenECu or go with a full standalone. Turbo timer isn't necessary for the GT35R since you'll likely be using the stock coolant reservoir to feed it on shut down.

    You will want a stronger transmission too. And the 2.0L wont handle that turbo for very long, you'll need to build the block considerably.

    ^ this, and I'd be worried about the stock 5 speed with just that clutch alone, depending on how you drive it. Welcome to the site I'm sure you will find quite a bit of helpful information. Don't forget to use the search function before asking any questions that have already been answered repeatedly :)
