Not sure what that is supposed to mean. You're going to need "up" piping and a downpipe.

Add a BOV to the list. I'll let the turbo guys finish what else is missing.

how much boost are you planning for? EU or SAFCII should be added. Turbo timer, boost gauge, egt/oil pressure gauge is a plus. I'm assuming since u put IC on the list u have the IC piping included?

I'm also going to suggest an AFPR and don't forget you'll need something to mount the gauges, either an a-pillar pod or something else.

what exactly are the advantages of running a s-afcII over a EU?

with the safc you will be able to compensate the fuel needs but with a real stand alone you will be able to precisely adjust the fuel/air ratio control ignition timing control , its way more precise than an safc downside is the price

i was able to get on my 240sx/sr20det almost the same whp with less psi, running more on the safe side(more richer) than with safc plus i was able to control timing,fans,2 extra outputs if i decide to run nos

it uses almost every oem sensor installed but not the maf because microtech uses its own map sensor a big plus if you decide to vent your blow off to atmosphere instead of recirculating,because when decelerating you won't have rpms jumping up and down plus is way more precise reading actual air entering the throttle plus its not as restrictive as maf are one reason almost everybody switch to z32 mafs once installed you can hook a laptop and read all parameters of engine or log them in computer for further analysis the list goes on so depending on price you can decide whether or not it is a good investment for me it worth the money

I have a note for you..and not too related to the turbo though. I see you live in nebraska. remove any rust you have..and treat it. Also coat a LOT of the undercarriage and any exposed metal with a good protectant. This is controls arms, cross members. I highly recommend por-15. I've been spending a lof of time under my car which i bought second hand from a cold state...there's rust in places you wouldn't imagine so get it early! You will most likely leave a few things more exposed than they were before the turbo simply due to the fact the piping may be in the way of shrouds and such. Once you get all of that piping running under there it makes things more difficult and treating rust with all that piping under there will be a major pain in the @$$. Do you really want the hassle of removing various parts to treat rust in the future..cause it's almost guaranteed you'll get some. unless you absolutely NEVER plan to have the car anywhere near salt..which is damn near impossible in a state with snow, I'd really consider doing it!
