okay, so now I have decided to go with the esmeril turbo kit.

as far as I know, in order to go turbo, you need:

intercooler
intercooler piping
manifold
BOV
wastegate
turbo
an EMS like int.X and the Cobb AccessPORT?(not sure)
fuel pump upgrade (says it come with this as well)
new injectors (not sure where to get or what to get)
new sparks (again, not sure which ones)
better ignition system (says on their site they will be releasing this soon)

am I missing anything?

also, would the B&B exhaust be a decent exhaust for FI?

what is the esmeril missing in terms of parts for the $5800 pricetag?

is the esmeril kit truly tunable/installable at home? (yes I have some mechanical experience and am somewhat intelligent.)

Its complete except for a boost gauge, and a wideband 02 sensor.

It is installable at home. It will take you the better part of a weekend or an entire week to get it in depending on how much time you have to spend on it and your mechanical expereince.

As with any modification the tools you have will determine how quickly you can get it done (some bolts can either take 10 seconds or 10 minutes).

I have a full set of wrenchs and a full set of sockets, metric & standard. is that going to cut it?

Yeah you should be able to make it work.

Some bolts are a pain if you don't have extenders and swivels for your socket set.

Also in case KrylonFuzion doesn't know, an engine management system is not included but base maps and settings are programmed for free if you go with an Interceptor-X engine management system.

We do carry a few moderately used Interceptor-Xs that we will sell far below the new price (and they are programmed and ready to go).
