Hear is a Lager recipe I am doing, Want to know how big of a starter, how long to let starter start for. And some primary fermentatin time and secondary time.

Any changes I should make with the grains or maybe the hops. I was thinking of 1.5 oz. of tett. for 60 and then .5 oz. at the 5 min. and leaving .5 oz.
Hallertau out at 5 min. just doing the entire oz. at 15 min.

I am looking ant fermenting at 45-55 degree range. Any thoughts.
malt and fermentables

6 lbs of pilsen light LME
3 lbs of extra light DME
1 lbs of american 2 row steeped
1 lbs of crystal 60L

2 oz Tettnanger 60 min. 4.5 AA
.5 Hallertau 15 min. 4.5 AA
.5 Hallertau 5 min. 4.5 AA

Wyeast Bavarian Lager 2206.
 
If you use that calculator, and I recommend that you do, make sure you change the fermentation type from ale to lager.
