Default How am I looking?

Been reading for quite awhile and have been gathering parts for awhile. What do you guys think? This is a daily driver buget build. Dont talk me into anything unnecessary, cuase I dont need to spend anymore money!
04 2500HD LQ4 ecsb 4.10's 4L80E
On3performance 70mm turbo
T4 housing
.70ar cw housing
.68 and .96 tw housings
The .96 is on it now
Custom log (if I dont like it i will go kb)
lsxkiller dyno tune
5-8lbs
wanna stay stock becuase I leave for college in a month or two.
how much boost can I run with stock injectors?
Anything else im missing? wastegate and bov will mostly likely be from ebay.
Thanks guys!

I didn't see anything in there about an intercooler... ditch the stock injectors also. I personally wouldn't skimp on the bov and gate either but I know it's a budget deal, just monitor it real close and you should be ok.

Stock injectors on a 6.0 may support 1psi, in other words NONE. You will need larger injectors. Just so you know that turbo is kinda small for a 6.0

Injectors
Fuel Pump
Intercooler

Sorry I have like a 30x14 A2A. And I also have pyro, boost, afr(wide and) and rail pressure. And yeah I know the turbo is alittle small it will probably max out at 10psi but I already have it so I would like to use it. And Iv heard my injectors will support around 5-6 or should I use some 8.1 marine injectors? Or just do it right the first time and get some 60lbs? And just as an off topic question is an intercooler necessary?

I will go ahead and call it. I see this project ending in disaster.

but on a more helpful note, get at least 60lb injectors and a walbro400 pump. Yes you want an intercooler. Custom log? care to elaborate? Turbo is fine, it will just max out really early.

Turbo is smallish but will work. I think it will choke after 7-8 psi. Keep it below that and you will be fine. Get bigger injectors, fuel pump, and a good wastegate.
