Fuel rails, new fuel lines and adapters, do you have a returnless system? If not, you need a new fuel pressure regulator. Throttle body adapter elbow like this for example, fittings and adapters, like a vacuum manifold maybe, to hook up the MAP sensor and evap solenoid, and you have to cut the sleeves on the mounting bolts. That's all I can think of.

I noticed a significant loss in low-end (idle to 3000 rpm) power. On a stock ls engine of any kind this is probably a waste of money. This intake is best suited for FI engines or large 400+ci high rpm engines.
