A key in mind is to have enough money in case things go wrong that you can fall back on.
I would basically say, fuel filter also... and a large exhaust

check the bolts by the cat so you can properly take off the downpipe in order to install the pretend HRC downpipe. mine were SO rusted that i couldn't disconnect the cat at all. i had to drop the ENTIRE exhaust to get it off. it sucked.

check the bolts on the exhaust manifold too. make sure they aren't too rusted. when i did my install a year ago my manifold bolts weren't that bad.
