You may be able to run the air pump depending on your manifold. With the HKS cast on a 13bt, it doesn't look like the air pump will fit.

Now to answer the question, you will need a turbo manifold, external wastegate, downpipe made ot fit (or new downpipe), new oil lines and fittings, turbo and manifold gaskets, and maybe new coolant lines with fittings.

If you are smart, you will have a stand-alone EMS as well.

That question was answered in your previous post (by jonfc3s):

Also, your question was also answered in your other post (by 1revn3rdgen):

I'm beginning to think you don't know what a hybrid is... do you?

lol ok, well here's a story:

Before we begin, there are 3 main "areas" to a turbo... the turbine-side, the CHRA, and the compressor-side. The turbine side includes the turbine wheel which is connected to the shaft which goes through your turbo, and the turbine housing, which bolts to your stock turbo manifold. The CHRA is where all the oil and coolant lines hook up to, and also where the bearings in the turbo are. The compressor side includes the compressor wheel which is what compresses incoming air to create boost, and the compressor housing which is how the comrpessed air gets out of the turbo.

In general, here is how a cheap hybrid is put together:
A hybrid begins life as a stock turbo. It is then removed of its stock compressor-side. A new, larger compressor wheel is put on. The stock compressor housing can be machined (depending on how large this new compressor wheel is) to fit over the upgraded compressor wheel. If it is too large, a new, larger compressor housing is put on to fit over this new wheel. Everything is then balanced, and you get your turbo back as a "hybrid".

Simple as that... So now do you see how a hybrid can be so cost effective?

The HKS T04E kit is definately good for 340-370 whp. I have that kit on my car currently but have yet to dyno it. You can expect those numbers on a stock ported motor of course this is dependant on your tune.
