Thanks!! It is a real barrel of monkeys now. Ironically I was going to mention that my mileage would suffer from being on the throttle so much while enjoying the new exhaust note, but I filled up today and I still got 19.35mpg!! I have no idea how, but I will take it nonetheless!!

To be honest, I do not recall exactly what all of the components of the kit were, but a few of the high-points are:
Intercooler
Intercooler tubing
Intake manifold plenum
Wastegated turbo exhaust housing (smaller than oe for faster spool-up with w/gate to control total boost)
I think the kit came with a Banks aif filter, but I could not use the monstrosity that was the oe filter housing.
Turbo downpipe
Gauges, EGT and Boost
Probably some more stuff to justify the ridiculous price of the kit.

If I ever find the sales literature, I will post actual components.
