Im tending towards the GT2860rs Turbo but was wondering what Supporting modds are needed to get the most out of it?

We need to know more about your car and objectives (power, use) to answer the question.

Well im wanting tio use the car on track and after max response but also strong pulling power.
The block has forged Pistons uprated headgasket. So im after injectors i have z32maf still have std cams. I was deciding what turbo but after reading on here the Disco potato ar 86 seems ideal. i just wanna know what injectors would be great. also mapping will be done via Greddy Emanage

the emanage is ultimate ? or blue ?

ultimate as stability issue, many tuner will bring you better tuning software/ecu

The best supporting "modds" for track time are, seat time, and after that some driver training.

so can i not use the Greddy blue to get it Mapped? or am i better off selling it?
Also with a gt28rs 550cc injectors z32maf and a remap what power could i be looking at? 350+?

If it's for a track car you're doing it wrong, don't chase horsepower these cars are quick enough in standard guise. Prepare the car with reliability, not horsepower in mind.

The car has just been seam welded a half cage welded in. Coilovers. Solid rubber Engine mounts. Fully Stripped So now im getting the Engine ready so i thought i would choose the Gt28rs ar86. So all i wanted is to know what Injectors ect should i use To get the most out of the Turbo.
 
I would hardly call a disco spud chasing power and theres no reason why a 350bhp Pulsar shouldn't be reliable with correct cooling. It will give a bit more zing than the stock turbo, but will also have better response and make the car more drivable.

For supporting mods do as Red Reading says, sort out the cooling and brakes then 555cc, Z32 and a mapped Nistune. I'd flog the E-manage as its a piggy back which I've never been a fan of.

The 2860rs is'nt much differant to the standard turbo power wise but it does spool sooner, as for reliability and being quick enough standard your having a laugh!

well as my Engine has stronger internals my original Idea was to go for something like a Gt30 or similar and even the Gearbox was rebuilt not to long ago so it should last. Plus its not going to be a used for drag racing and i have always been lucky with boxes.

You've done it now! never say your gearbox will be alright.

Ported GT2871 with .64 will spool FAST and will do 400hp. IMO I really don't rate the 'disco potato' turbos on a pulsar at all. They can do like 20-30 more bhp than a stock unit and will be flat out. Even Garrett only rate them to 360hp.

E-manage can do the job, once upon a time it was a good solution, but things have come on along way since then.

Again simply IMO 560cc injectors are a little on the small side, you can just about at a push get 400 but they will be really beyond their comfort zone.
