Default What all comes in a turbo kit?

I have read many a posts and have come to the conclusion that I want to buy a GT30R turbo for my H22a. I found a place that has the lowest price for one of them, but it is just the turbo. I was wondering what else comes in the turbo kits that I would need to buy. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It all depends on the kits. Some have all the parts you need (Edelbrock) and others hardly have anything (MaxRev).

The most common list of parts that will accompany a turbo is:

Turbo (with internal wastegate or external)
Exhaust manifold
Oil Lines (hopefully)
Clamps and couplers (hopefully all you need)
Downpipe (maybe)
Necessary gaskets/seals/hardware (hopefully)

Now, you will need the following and they don't always come in the kits:

Some kind of fuel management be it an FMU or EMS (Hondata)
Injectors (size will depend on the amount of boost and power created) w/ clips
Piping
Blow off valve
T's for vacuum lines
Vacuum line

I think that's it. If I think of more I'll add it.
