that kit is supposed to work with your engine being stock. but i would upgrade your injectors, and of course get some sort of fuel management (ie uberdata). you don't need a fuel regulator with that much boost. I'm not sure how much installation would be, you could try it yourself and save some extra cash. won't be that hard. as far as tuning, i'm still learning that stuff. what i plan on doing is taking it to a shop and have them tune it and then dyno. from what i heard tuning isn't that hard, but i don't want to take chances. As far as the intercooler, let me know whats up...its a good one.

the kit comes with injectors, it would be a good idea to upgrade your fuel system, pump, pressure reg, and rail. Install on a greddy system is really easy, DIY! There isnt alot of tuning to be done either, so that would be fairly cheap.

I said previously it comes with injectors and fuel management... listen to the guy above, you need to do some homework! when I said fuel system I was referring to your fuel pump, pressure reg, and fuel rail. not the injectors or emanage that comes with the kit.

you don't have to replace your fuel pump, or fuel rail with that much psi or add an fpr. he can run his stock ones no problem and don't need an fpr.
