you're going to need an adapter plate for the mani and turbo. you don't need the fpr. you're going to need oil lines like you stated. a boost gauge (at least, maybe an a/f gauge also if you like), check valves(or a missing link) since you're using an fmu so you don't get a cel. an oil pan gasket for when you take your oil pan off to tap it for your oil return, couplers and clamps for you charge pipes, a bov, misc t's and fittings, vacuum hose. that's about all that i can think of for the 'bare minimums'. the day that i thought i had everything and was ready to do my install, i spend 120 bucks on the little things that i had over looked :-\

you're also going to need new oil and might as well do a filter too since you will have to take it off to get a clean view of the oil line

good call on all the little things.... u WILL overlook something, and say "o ----, i gotta go get that". i cant think of anything else to add, other then that comment tho :P

don't forget your flux capacitor, but yeah, All the little things reall add up and if you don't have a second vehicle your really screwed, thats why I recomend you do you installs in the homedepot parking lot 8)
