Code name 08SCG37S Okay I think I'm ready. This could be dangerous. 08SCG37s

So I have been getting ready to do this build for some time but it's gonna be on a tight budget sometimes and then not at all at other times.
background:
So I have only been a G owner for about a year well......less than a year. You can say I fell in love at first sight. My first g35 was an06 sedan auto with 185k. I bought it for 1500 bought a box of part from a guy online for 80 dollars tried a new throttle body first. Shout out to neat(the mad beemer) for grabbing the parts and suggesting that first. First turn off key we both looked at eachothet "spark plugs) next turn she came to life. O what a wonderful sound she made who cares about the smoke and **** from tail pipe it was an amazing thing. On the way home didn't put dipstick in all way so half way I saw oil water steam and lots of smoke. Radiator blew oil was spraying from dipstick area it was a sight I thought I was screwed for sure but ended up just needed more oil and radiator this car went on to take a beating but the the nicest car around for 6 months till cops took it and my 05 g35 6mt coupe with 19k miles ****.....but that's a different story all in all I have bought and resold 11 g35 s allowing me to this point of the classified 08scg37s build. So I bought a 2008 infiniti g37 6mt coupe sport with 80000 miles on it(I know scary but for price) for $6500 could beat it. I did just splurge on some wheel $2000. Guy at discount tire talked me into Work wheels VSXX 275 10.5X19 235 9.5X19 ILL GRT PICTURES ON HERE AFTER I POST THIS. or I'll never start it I also bought a stillen super charger but just the intake manifold procharger and bracket water tank (junk,). 600cc Injectors and fuel pump for $2600 so here we are at $11100 I'm up for an suggestions especially what I should do to protect my engine from blowing also need to lower now badly. Here we go

Oil Cooler, Wrap exhaust piping and get the differential cooling fin bolt on to keep the differential from over heating.

Refresh ALL fluids (send oil to Black stone labs for analysis), Compression test to ensure engine health.

Confirmed. OP is no Hemingway.

Always excited to see people take the FI plunge though.

You definitely want to talk to topgunz. His improvements made the Stillen kit much more reliable. I'd also talk to Specialty Z regarding the tuning when you get to that bridge.

Afraid to start

Can any one help with the demon bolts that require a special wrench from the stillen kit to install. Has anyone put it on themselves without the special wrench? Any ideas tips or trick any help would be very appreciated. I'm gonna start pulling my car apart today. Also if anyone has any advice at all that could help me while manifold is off what should I do to upgrade or prevent any future issues? I'm new new to forced induction and really want to do this right. I think I will be able to pull it off on s record budget too.
