I'm going to be picking up a HRC Stage 2 very soon.. I'm kinda confused what I need as of a turbo timer and boost controller to be able to monitor my boost and be able to pretty much turn it up and down when need be? Like say I'm stuck in traffic and I just want it at like 1psi or lower.. Is this possible to do.. and what will I need?

oh yah.. take a look at the picture of my car.. any ideas how to balance out the drop? the back is about a inch higher than the front?.. I was thinking along the lines of getting better shocks in the back..

Don't worry about a boost controller now. You will see when you start driving the car. There is no need to "turn the boost down" when you get into traffic. You can control spool up with your right foot. The car will drive much like it did before under normal driving. If you buy a stage II kit, your minimum boost will be 7-9 psi. If you want a lower minimum boost, you can buy a stage I wastegate actuator (minimum 4-6 psi).
Get any turbo timer you want. Even the $90 Greddy will do everything the average person needs (what I have).
Don't know what to say about the ride height. My drivers side is lower than the passengers. My back is also higher than the front. I've got Progress with Illumina struts. I suppose coil overs are the only way to get the exact drop you want (still considering this route). No one else notices that my car has an uneven drop...but I'm a stickler for detail. I always want things exactly "right".

Do you think that: "hrc mapper to check valve 'missing link' hrc fpr to super fmu"
is really necessary? The other thing I was wondering about is... If I buy the spark plugs and wires now (ngk wires for a gst) is that going to be too powerful for my car right now without the turbo or should i just wait till i get the turbo before i put those on?
