you definitely need to up the injectors, that's not really optional.  if you stay under 5 psi, tho, an intercooler is optional.    and you don't have to get an electronic boost controller, you can get a manual one cheap.  if you get toys, that ups the price considerably.  and you DEF need an EGT gauge.  AFR gauges are not necessary at all, they just look cool.   i dunno what you mean by "air lines" either.  just an oil feed and an oil return. i'm turboing the 7afe as well, i have all my stuff.  i think a necessary part of the project is learning what you need.  if i just gave you a list of "buy greddy blah this, and HKS blah that" that defeats the purpose of a "custom" kit.  also, if you are like me, and installing it yourself, if you can't research to figure out what you need, then you really shouldn't be attempting the install.  good luck, and let me know if i can help you at all.

ok thanks for correcting me

im sorry but by air lines i meant vacuum lines, for the boost gauge and other stuff that needs airpressure from the manifold

oh and charlie, what would you say is an ideal EG temp? i know that on the jgs website it said that they ran 1600 when tunning(which implies that it is really really high)
